A Fine Line

Overview

Truth or fiction? In A Fine Line Marc Séguin revisits the boy, the adolescent, and the young man he once was – all three tormented by incessant worry, they now haunt the renowned painter, film director, and author he has become. His profound, striking reflections – shaped by deaths, confessions put to the test, a friendship destroyed, and memories of the beautiful Arielle – masterfully punctuate this story about a man who regrets not having loved enough… or perhaps having loved too late.

Reviews

"His concise writing is used with great efficacity, and his words enter and inhabit the spirit. A short, treasured book that I will reread with pleasure." —Chantal Fontaine, Librairie Moderne
