AÉROPORTÉE (French translation by Miriam Cusson)
(Prise de parole, 2022)

Ever Falling Flight (Aéroportée) is a dark, comic fantasy inspired by the final, mysterious flight of aviator Amelia Earhart. Caught in a time loop, flying into sunset after sunset, a pilot known only as Æ dashes through increasingly strange ports-of-call, accompanied only by the voice of her (un)trusty navigator Fred. Pursued by the spectre of a demonic red plane, Æ draws ever closer to her final destination: the end of the world, or its very beginning. Ever Falling Flight is a play about mortality and what we leave behind us in the contrail of our lives.

THE CITY STILL BREATHING
(Coach House Books, 2013)


AGONIE CITY (French translation by Eva Lavergne)
(Prise de parole, 2017)

A body is found on the side of a highway. Naked, throat slashed, no identification. It disappears from the back of a police van and begins a strange odyssey, making its way, over the course of one early winter night, all around the northern town of Sudbury and through the lives and dreams of eleven very different people.
