La disparition
Charlotte Gingras
Montréal : La courte échelle, 2005. 159 p.
ISBN 2890217566
Ages 12 and up

After receiving a notebook containing a message written by her mother, Viola is broken-hearted and seething with anger. She runs away to the North to find the place where her mother disappeared.

This coming-of-age novel contrasts the realities and values of two worlds, the land of forests and rivers, as well as nature devastated by mining companies.
