WINNER OF THE PRIX DE FLORE
The first section of our analysis will focus upon the pathological phenomenon 'blind love' . . .
When MS falls hard for XX, a seductive, Vespa-driving Parisian, she finds her behaviour changing. Suddenly she is stealing his lighters on their dates, documenting his drinks choices, agonizing over the meaning of each word in his messages. And when, inevitably, XX loses interest, MS's obsession spirals.
This is a story of unrequited love told through the fragments - photos, emails, letters - of a broken relationship. Dark, stylish, funny, painful, it's an addictive glimpse into one woman's tormented mind.
