The Boy Who Belonged to the Sea
by Denis Thériault

Québécois author and screenwriter Denis Thériault brings us an unusual tale set on the shores of the Gulf of St Lawrence. Dipping in and out of fantasy and reality, this story of a friendship tested to its limits was awarded the Prix Odysée when the novel was first published in Canada, and has gone on to win several other prizes.
