Translated from the French.
One morning a librarian finds a reader who has been locked in overnight. She starts to talk to him, a one way conversation that soon gathers pace as an outpouring of frustrations, observations and anguishes. Two things shine through: her shy, unrequited passion for a quiet researcher named Martin, and an ardent and absolute love of books. A delightful flight of fancy for the lonely bookworm in all of us.
Translated from the French.
