In this magical story of her childhood in a world so different from our own, Mireille Marokvia blurs the distinction between the real and the imagined to create a moving account of how a young woman gives voice to her vision and an aging woman addresses the gentle ghosts that haunt her memories. Immortelles is an elegy to a lost world and a testimony to the splendor of childhood -- even a childhood touched by death.
