The Weight of Snow

“A dark and mesmerizing story, attentive to the dramatic and cold beauty of the landscape, the dislocating social bonds, the disarray and the dormant violence, choked by winter but ready to be reborn at the first signs of thawing… One of the strongest novels this season.”

—Christian Desmeules, Le Devoir

“A hypnotic, claustrophobic story… Guay-Poliquin manages to keep us on our heels until the very end. A book that shines like snow melting under a winter sun.”

—Josée Lapointe, La Presse+

“The novel’s dramatic force is perfectly mastered, and results in one of the biggest successes of the year.”
