Anna Dubosc has just released her latest book entitled “Plus vivant que la vie”

Anna Dubosc has just released her latest book entitled “Plus vivant que la vie” published by Quidam Éditeur.

In this narrative, Anna Dubosc reflects on her mother’s death to give substance to her disappearance, Kumiko.
“For months, I have refrained from revisiting my words; I simply try to move forward, to hold on. When I finally gather some material, I become anxious about losing these notes, yet I hesitate to transfer them onto the computer. It would feel like attending Kumiko’s funeral or permanently erasing her, while she still lingers within the materiality of the notebooks, in my handwritten words, and strangely enough, in the risk of losing these notes. They must be capable of being lost; that’s why they exist.”
