It's the summer of 1914. Eight-year-old Bernice lives with her family in a lighthouse on Georgian Bay. Bernice doesn't get…

to explore much farther than their island, but she has her books to fuel her imagination, including her favorite, Treasure Island. One day Bernice wakes up to find a stranger named Tom Thomson sleeping in their living room. When she overhears him talk about gold on a nearby island, Bernice is determined to find it. Inspired by her beloved Mémèr's stories of their Métis family's adventures and hardships, Bernice takes the treasure map the stranger left behind and sets out in a rowboat with nothing more than her two dogs for company and the dream of changing her family's fortunes forever

Comme un long accident de char: roman

By Joël Martel. 2024

Human-transcribed braille

À l’aube du grand départ de son père, Joël se remémore ses morts. Comme tout un chacun, il a connu…

le deuil de membres de sa famille et de quelques amis, et peut aussi témoigner tendrement de sa triste expérience avec le deuil périnatal. Dans une langue parlée truffée de perles d’esprit et de cabotinage, Martel nous raconte sa vie dans le désordre pour tenter de donner du sens aux grandes disparitions qui hantent nos vies. Ce faisant, il livre un hommage émouvant à son père, Jici, personnage haut en couleur et rebelle à tout conformisme.
