Résumé

A finalist for France's prestigious Prix Renaudot, and translated into more than ten languages, the little girl who was too fond of matches is the strikingly original tale of two siblings growing up isolated from the outside world. Alone with their authoritarian father on a vast estate where tune has stopped, the pair speak a language and inhabit a surreal universe of their own making. When their father dies they tome into contact with the outside world for the first time, and the appalling truth of their existence is revealed. A richly imaginative story in which nothing is as it first seems, the little girl who was too fond of matches has a universel, timeless quality, and is a tour de force of suspense, linguistic invention and playfulness.
