La Poussette
Dominique de Rivaz

I would have liked to tell my husband what happened, but I would have had to explain about the stroller wheels, and that was the one thing in the world that I could never explain to anyone.

A young woman tells her life story. With a healthy dose of self-mockery, she tries (without success) to forget the traumatic episode that froze her forever in adolescence. How could she go on living after that? Even the company of Newborn, an adorable little mail-order infant, size 36, would never really change anything…
Composed around and because of a wound that our society prefers not to discuss – sterility- The Stroller isn’t trying to inspire pity. Anything but! The narrator’s singular voice gives this novella a tone that is both naive and cruel, tender and discomforting.
