About the book

"Rimouski 1955. Marie feels trapped by her marriage to Romain, a doctor who treats her with the same care and professional detachment as he does his patients. Hope arrives in the form of Thomas, Romain's long-lost childhood friend whose memories were erased during a fire that devastated Rimouski. In Thomas, Marie sees a blank slate - a way to break from the walls that have slowly grown around her." "Chicago, 2002. Lou, Marie and Romain's daughter, has not been home in decades. She believes she is happier to be free of her troubled family. But when her husband, Joe, is partially paralyzed by a brain aneurysm, Lou finds herself remembering her life in Rimouski, and contemplating a return home." "After the Red Night demonstrates how unendurable connections survive when all else is in ruins - and how escape can define a life."--Jacket.
