To hold up

"Could it be this,
This dark beast stirring in my chest
Trampling, tearing, gnawing everything around it,
With the ferocity of a hyena,
Leaving me with only a gaping hole in my heart
And a dryness in my throat?
Guilt...
Could it be this,
Loving against one's will?
Loving badly
Loving without knowing why
Loving..." Mélissa Da Costa plunges us into the heart of a shattered couple's intimacy and confronts, with incredible strength, the reality of love, despair, and the thirst for life, despite trials.

A completely deserved success. Augustin Trapenard, La Grande Librairie.
