Electric Baths

A surprise return home triggers a chain of events, their strands weaving together a sinister web of dreams and reality, lies and truth, secrets and spells.Jean-Michel Fortier's chilling second novel features a cast of memorable characters, including Renee, who never dreams (or does she?), and the oft-widowed Bella, who signs her personal ads "Come, and be prepared to stay forever." Following in the tradition of Fortier's absurdist first novel, The Unknown Huntsman, this is a dark and offbeat tale about lost love, lost dreams, and one lost limb.
