Product Information
A man decides he is old enough. A woman returns early from a lovers' retreat to a bottle of pills at home. And how should you explain the nuances of contemporary Paris to your mother, twenty - five years dead? Valérie Mr éjen 's Black Forest is a book of mourning that isn ' t morbid or sentimental, but rather an elegant and wryly humorous brace against the void. With a paradoxically detached intimacy, Mr éjen follows death's dark and twisted path through the lives it touches, wringing out every possible meaning--or non-meaning-- along the way. A writer at the height of her career who draws comparisons to Georges Perec and Nathalie Sarraute, Mr éjen has cemented her status as an auteur with a singular voice, guiding us through the Black Forest of ghosts that populate her subconscious.

Reviews
Named one of Publishers Weekly's Best Books of 2019Finalist for Big Other's Book Award for Translation"Mréjen's crystalline prose never grasps for sentimentality, and her meticulous, humane, and powerful volume unforgettably depicts the way the dead experience life after death in the traces they leave in the minds of the living." Publishers Weekly "Filmmaker and novelist Valérie Mréjen has an eye that cuts and chisels. Nothing escapes her intuitive vigilance...With her, details are isolated and become powerful revealers of truth. Between life and death, in the tradition of Nathalie Sarraute, she seeks to write in the very place where consciousness, emotion, and reason are born, and then fade... she shows that absence can also be a form of presence." -- Marine Landrot, Télérama"A sentence by Valérie Mréjen never pushes, rather glides along the page like on silk... Mréjen puts her finger on the wound, as delicately as possible." -- Eric Chevillard, Le Monde"If Valérie Mréjen were only a filmmaker, she could have been called Chantal Akerman." -- Jean-Luc Douin, Le Monde"[This writer] who always wields the verb with finesse and economy surprises us this time with its dark side-- The subject here is death." -- Elle France "A masterful and delicate book...Mréjen approaches deeper waters and navigates them with a sensible and offbeat touch that lands her among the greats. " -- A.N., l'Humanité"The narrator of Valérie Mréjen's Black Forest recounts a series of deaths, offering a kind of jeweled omnibus of ways to die, in a classy, glassy prose recalling miniaturists par excellence Lydia Davis, Michael Martone, and Robert Walser - think Six Feet Under via Renata Adler's " -- John Madera, novelist and editor of Big Other"In seventy-two pages (including translator's note), Mréjen stalks no less than great Death itself, in all its various tragic or capricious or mundane or shocking or brutal or funny guises." -- Three Percent, Christopher Phipps"Black Forest is a sparse and elegiac novel. Its unrelenting focus on a subject we'd often prefer not to think about makes it a sort of memento mori. Through the scale and disparate passings presented, Mréjen reminds us that while for all of us the moment will come when we pass, death can be a unifying moment rather than just an alienating one. That those who succeed us will do whatever they can and push on. That wherever death might find us, there is also life." -- Kenyon Review, Ian J. Battaglia, Named one of Publishers Weekly's Best Books of 2019 "Filmmaker Mréjen's extraordinary English-language debut is a catalogue of mortality...Mréjen's crystalline prose never grasps for sentimentality, and her meticulous, humane, and powerful volume unforgettably depicts the way the dead experience life after death in the traces they leave in the minds of the living." -- Publishers Weekly," starred Review "Filmmaker and novelist Valérie Mréjen has an eye that cuts and chisels.
