Summary:

Catherine Leroux's brilliant first novel in English shuffles between, and eventually ties together, stories about siblings joined in surprising ways. Reminiscent of the novels of Tom Robbins and David Mitchell, with well-evoked settings and rich characters, 'The Party Wall' establishes Leroux as one of Canada's most intelligent and innovative young authors. This book was also the winner of the Quebec bookseller's prize and the prestigious France-Quebec Prize.
