Title : Return to Cayro - Dorothy Allison - book
Summary :
In this unforgettable story, Dorothy Allison focuses on these existences, atrophied by not seeing the light. But isn't anger a much more powerful fertilizer than happiness for making beings grow to the sun? And her characters lack neither rage nor spite. "Return to Cayro" is a magnificent novel of breath and sand: we hear a kind of crunching of feelings that prevents us from sleeping. Ten years earlier, Delia Byrd abandoned her husband (Clint Windsor) and her two little girls (Dede and Amanda). Too many blows and too many screams. She fell in love with guitarist Randall Pritchard and joined his rock band as a singer. Settling in California, she gave birth to a third daughter named Cissy. But how many shovelfuls of dirt does it take to bury the past for good? Alcohol is a thin band-aid on the pain of her guilt. So, when she learns of Randall Pritchard's death in a motorcycle accident, her decision is made: to return to Cayro - with Cissy under her arm - and find her two other daughters." Marie-Laure Delorme, Le Journal du Dimanche.
