Symptômes

In Symptômes, Catherine Ocelot questions the imprints left by words, what makes people sick and what heals them, the deep nature of each individual and how to listen to that little voice that we too often keep silent.

Like plants entwined in a greenhouse, the stories in Symptômes intertwine and interlock to expose the ties that bind us, but also how relationships, whether toxic or healthy, impact our bodies and minds. What if there are invisible threads that forever connect us to those who have played a role in our lives?

The finesse of the dialogues and the drawing transmit to the readers all the emotions and reflections, sometimes funny, sometimes poetic, that punctuate the book. Symptômes, a bit like a waking dream, explores our inner movements, what transforms us.
