About The Author

Rachelle Renaud

Gérald Tougas was born in Sainte-Anne-des-Chênes, Manitoba, a small village of die-hard French-Canadians. His destiny appeared to be mapped out for him, since he grew up rooted in his faith and the French language. An inveterate nomad, however, he set out on his own personal journey and began to travel the world, eventually choosing Québec as his land of exile. Tougas is also the author of La mauvaise foi, for which he won the 1990 Governor General’s Award.

Her translations have appeared in Exile, Rupture la revue des 3 Amériques, Moebius, ELLIPSE and BEACONS, and Journal of Literary Translation.
