Nearby, a woman, preoccupied with sadness and infatuated with her boss, catalogues antiquities at the Museum of Civilization. Every night, the two women meet at the hotel bar and talk - about childhood and parents and landscapes, about time and art, about Descartes and Francis Bacon and writing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen \u003ci\u003eYesterday, at the Hotel Clarendon\u003c\/i\u003e appeared in French (as \u003ci\u003eHier\u003c\/i\u003e), the media called it the pinnacle of Brossard's remarkable forty-year literary career. From its intersection of four women emerges a kind of art installation, a lively read in which life and death and the vertigo of ruins tangle themselves together to say something about history and desire and art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nicole Brossard\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 155245150X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781552451502\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Coach House Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/19\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.96lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.96h x 5.54w x 0.96d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Governor General's Literary Awards - Finalist\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eQuill \u0026amp; Quire\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2005 pg. 40","brand":"Nicole Brossard","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44149412561151,"sku":"9781552451502","price":22.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3c5a48be-1646-4dd6-a9be-6faae8450615.jpg?v=1688456568","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/yesterday-at-the-hotel-clarendon-nicole-brossard-9781552451502","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
