Publicity

"Toni tout court" takes us into the mind of a young 20-year-old woman.

The action takes place over a day, not just any day, as it's Toni's birthday.

And from the first lines, you can feel Toni's discomfort, especially through this “something” that is between her throat and her heart, and which gives her an air of sorrow.

Shane Haddad gives

us a learning novel written on a chalk line, with short, crisp, chiseled and punchy sentences.

"Toni tout court" by Shane Haddad was published by POL editions
