The facing-pages French-to-English translation of the award-winning literary novel, La Chinoise du Tableau. Florence Tholozan lives near Montpellier. A graduate in clinical psychology, she teaches in Hérault. As far back as she can remember, she has always had a love for words. The Chinese Woman from the Painting is her first novel:
'I have always believed that the very moment you meet someone, you already have a vague idea of what will happen in the relationship. And the emotion from that initial look is equal to the importance that this person will have in your life.
What if, like Mélisende and Guillaume, you discovered a strange painting?
'A painting that would change your outlook on life?
In the background, behind a young Chinese woman, there would stand a couple who would resemble you and yours in every way. With one exception: the characters painted on the canvas would be much older.'
