J'ai entendu parler de Mourlevat à la radio de Radio-Canada.Selon le site Web de l'auteur : 'Cette histoire, je l'ai écrite dans le plaisir et la jubilation, même les pages mélancoliques. Les chapitres dégringolaient de moi en veux-tu en voilà. Ma main n'allait pas assez vite. J'en riais tout seul. J'ai écrit ce roman à plus de soixante-dix pour cent dans les trains, sur des cahiers d'écolier. C'était à l'automne 1999.'La suite est 'Hannah'.
