“Traces de résidence – The Green House” by Maude Boutin St-Pierre
“Week after week, at the same time, we talk about rivers, rocks, droughts, floods, walks, flowers. We talk about anxieties, hopes, and responsibilities.”
In 2024, Maude Boutin St-Pierre was selected to participate in the Green House project along with writers from other Cities of Literature: Exeter, Heidelberg, Slemani, Iowa City, and Melbourne.
Through a sensitive narrative, she would like to invite us into the garden, where her reflections on the act of writing and the life of plants and insects cross-pollinate.

The Green House is a virtual writing workshop initiated by Melbourne, a UNESCO City of Literature.
