Candy Story (European Women Writers)

Candy Story recounts a turbulent year in the life of Mia, a young woman whose apparent calm is perpetually threatened by inner doubts and outer catastrophe. Her modest dreams of happiness are dashed by the deaths of her mother, old friends, and her lover. Mia is a talented writer, the author of an autobiographical novel. Now, assailed by calamity and misfortune, she struggles with writerâ€™s block, confoundedâ€”at least for the momentâ€”by the senseless world around her.
Â
Candy Story is the fourth novel by Marie Redonnet. Translations of the first threeâ€”HÃ´tel Splendid, Forever Valley, and Rose Mellie Roseâ€”are also available from the University of Nebraska Press. In its unadorned prose and passionate focus on the inner life of a young woman, this fourth novel is unmistakably allied to the earlier ones. It will enthrall Redonnetâ€™s admirers and win new ones.
Â
Born in Paris in 1947, Redonnet taught for a number of years in a suburban lycÃ©e before deciding to pursue a writing career full time. Since her volume of poetry Le Mort & Cie appeared in 1985, she has published four novels, a novella, numerous short stories, and three dramatic works.
