A debut novel for the rentrée: Douce Dibondo's "Le Mouvement"
Télérama singles out "Le Mouvement" as one of the striking first novels of this year's rentrée littéraire, describing a book built around silence, a murder and vengeance that grows into an artistic and militant movement.
Among the wave of new titles arriving for the rentrée littéraire, Télérama highlights "Le Mouvement", the first novel by Douce Dibondo. According to the outlet, the book begins with silence surrounding a murder, out of which vengeance emerges and feeds into an artistic and militant movement calling for revolution.
Télérama describes the novel as disturbing, and its writing as queer, sensorial and "terriblement libre" — a striking free style. The review frames it as one of the more vertiginous debuts of this year's crop of new French fiction.
No further details on the book's length, publisher or release date are given in the source material.
