Title : The Sky Above the Roof - Nathacha Appanah - book

Summary :

His mother and sister know that Loup sleeps in prison, even if the right word is remand center, but what do the right words matter when there are bars on the windows, a metal door with a peephole, and all those things that are only found between the walls. They imagine what it's like to sleep in jail at seventeen, but no one, really, can imagine the evenings in those places." As in the poem by Verlaine to which the title refers, this novel, marked by so many flashes of darkness, nevertheless transports us, through the grace of Nathacha Appanah's writing, towards a light falling from a sky so blue, so calm, towards this eternal sweetness that binds a family beyond the dramas.
