"Kamouraska" by Anne Hébert

I enjoyed this book much more in English, in my sixties, than I did in French (French class) in my twenties. The atmosphere, especially of a mad sleigh ride through the snow, is amazing. I remember it every time we drive close to Kamouraska on the way to New Brunswick. The book speaks volumes about the plight of women in the 19th century, especially of those with abusive husbands.
