The Bright Side

Praya de Préval, an interior designer, was never supposed to wake up in someone else's body. Yet, after a brutal accident on the streets of Paris, she finds herself trapped in the life of a stranger—an American businessman. Thrust into a liminal space, neither quite here nor truly elsewhere, and over which she has no control, she must confront the fragments of her former life and, above all, the parts of herself she had buried. L’Envers de la vie, a novel tinged with surrealism, subtly addresses deeply human themes with striking emotional intensity. It evokes missteps, memory, and the difficulty of letting go.
