Difficult to say if I should count this as it's really just a story published posthumously, but it is, strictly speaking, a book, if a very short one. Monette is one of my favorite authors. I have 8 of his works in my library at present, including all three of his AIDS memoirs. Sanctuary was originally intended to be one story in a collection. Like all fables, it is intended as instruction, and is beautifully told. The story of the love between a fox and a rabbit, both female, not only shows us how love changes our own nature--the fox becomes a vegetarian, as an example--but also shows how narrow minded outsiders may have difficulty accepting such a "contrary to nature" relationship. The story also is clear on the difference between true power and the illusion of power--something we all need to keep in mind in these frightful days. ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
