Dr Simona Pruteanu's latest article: Écologie intime et écriture de la durabilité dans la nouvelle « À boire debout » par Antoine Desjardins 

In this 22nd issue of Legs et Littérature, the notion of crisis is associated with literature – thus fiction – to question the power(s) of literature and what it offers to hear and understand during times of trouble. 

Simona's analysis highlights how Desjardins uses intimate and linguistic elements to convey his teenage character's anger and anxiety about both his leukemia and environmental disasters, showing that such events are deeply subjective experiences that impact individuals differently but lastingly.
