Reinventing the World through the Actions of Seven Young Titles
In the world of literature, September promises a rich harvest of new titles that are sure to captivate readers. Here's a sneak peek at some of the exciting works set to hit the shelves.
Danielle Chaperon, a renowned author, is releasing not one but two titles in September. "The Frog Sandwich" and "The Very Long Cry of Uncle Gregory" are set to make a splash. Élodie Duhameau has beautifully captured the universe of "The Frog Sandwich" with her distinctive style, while Xavier Cadieux makes a remarkable debut in youth literature with "The Very Long Cry of Uncle Gregory."
Meanwhile, India Desjardins, a leading figure in the literary landscape, is exploring the representations of femininity in popular culture in her upcoming essay. This work is accompanied by the reflections of great thinkers, from Virginia Woolf to Taylor Swift, via bell hooks. LaCharbonne will illustrate Desjardins' essay, adding another layer of depth to the thought-provoking piece.
For those with a fascination for the brain and its mysteries, Philip Bunting's "Your Amazing Brain" is a must-read. Recognizing the brain as "one of the most extraordinary things in the entire universe," this book delves into questions about thoughts, dreams, and the brain's secrets.
Nicholas Dawson directs a collective book titled "Outstretched Hands." This work features 11 known voices affirming and celebrating their singularity while calling for openness and recognition of alterity. The stories in "Outstretched Hands" consider differences in race, physicality, class, gender, mobility, cultural heritage, health status, or sexual orientation with compassion. Céline Comtois, editorial director of youth at Bayard, also contributes to "Outstretched Hands."
In a different vein, Jean-Christophe Réhel, a novelist, screenwriter, and contributor to Le Devoir, offers a unique perspective on the world. His writing often has an oblique gaze, free of preconceptions, tinted with self-deprecating humor and empathy. Some of his upcoming works include "What We Breathe on Tatooine," "The Moon's Floor," a finalist for the Governor General's Awards in 2023, and "L'air d'aller," which earned him a prize at Canneseries.
"The Wondrous Book of Death," illustrated by Soledad Romero Mariño and Mariona Cabassa, invites readers to break taboos about death. This book explores death from various angles, encouraging readers to confront and reflect on this universal aspect of life.
In the realm of poetry, Jean-Christophe Réhel's collections "Combing the Fire," winner of the Alvine-Bélisle Prize in 2020, and "The Moon's Floor" continue to resonate with readers.
Amidst this literary feast, the current divisive context seems to cry out for the hope and light offered in "Outstretched Hands." Find all the texts from the DMag, the cultural magazine, as well as all the texts from the 2025 literary season, in stores.
In other news, more than a dozen raids were conducted in various locations, leading to the striking of a network of cannabis traffickers in the greater Montreal area, Vaudreuil-Dorion, and Markham. The SQ made astonishing discoveries in these operations.
Jean-Christophe Réhel, a prolific author and screenwriter, continues to contribute to Le Devoir every two weeks, offering his unique insights on the world.
As we eagerly await these new releases, we can't help but feel excited about the literary journey that awaits us in September.
