Novelist, dramatist and poet Serge Lamothe practised several trades before devoting himself to the craft of writing. A holder of a master’s degree in literature, he has published four novels: La Longue Portée (1998), La Tierce Personne (2000), L’Ange au berceau (2002) and Les Baldwin (2004). His poems and short stories have also been published in various literary journals. His adaptation for the stage of Kafka’s Le Procès novel (The Trial ) was produced by Le Théâtre Nouveau Monde in Montreal, under the direction of filmmaker François Girard (The Red Violin).

QUOTES OF NOTE
The Baldwins“…a searing and ironic commentary on the state of Western society…”
— Canadian Literature
“Serge Lamothe pens a book that is both surprising and exhilarating!”
— Le Soleil
“Getting to know the Baldwins is like slipping into the inscrutable maze
of the human soul … Serge Lamothe’s novel falls under the sign of utter creative freedom and is filled with word and language play, evocative
imagery and poetic moods.”
— Le Devoir
“Delightfully disconcerting, this book can be savoured thanks to a
munificence that reveals a stunning imagination.”
— Le Voir
