New literary works released by David Dupuis and Michel J. Lévesque
Anthropologist David Dupuis has released ‘L’Épreuve de l’invisible. Carnets d’anthropologie psychédélique’ through Le Seuil. The work follows his extensive research into psychedelic experiences, including fifty ayahuasca sessions and hundreds of interviews. The book explores the complexities of translating these experiences into language, addressing themes such as the search for healing, political decolonization, and the tension between personal experience and verbal description.
In literary news, author Michel J. Lévesque has released his first adult crime novel, ‘Qui tuera Betty Gauthier?’. Lévesque, who previously found significant success in the Quebec youth literature market with the ‘Arielle Queen’ series—which sold approximately 200,000 copies—reflects on his career transition from children's books to adult fiction.
