Anima – Wajdi Mouawad (Paperback, Translated by Linda Gaboriau)

Step into a poetic, powerful, and unflinching exploration of violence, memory, and perception through the voices of animals.

Narrated from the unique perspectives of various animals – from cats and horses to insects and birds – this novel offers a remarkable storytelling experience.
