"With dreamlike drawings reminiscent of Chagall, Kercheval welcomes us into her meditation on family history, motherhood, grief, love, and displacement, rendered in colors so beautiful they're almost edible."
— Leela Corman, author of Victory Parade, You Are Not A Guest
"The pages of French Girl could be framed and hung in a museum, but lucky for us they are bound in our hands, sequencing a creative vision. With this gorgeous marriage of minimalism and expressionism, Kercheval conjures dreams, fairy tales, and persistent aches; a witness to the surreal pain of lost worlds and the exuberant beauty of remembrance."
— Amy Kurzweil, author of Artificial: A Love Story
“French Girl is an arresting and beautiful memoir that evokes the infinite complications of daughterhood and motherhood in raw, gorgeous color. It pulses with heart, figuratively and literally."
— Anthony Doerr, author of All the Light We Cannot See
"Jesse Lee Kercheval has reached all the way down to the very bottom of a lake called Story and rescued the faces once forgotten there. And French Girl is the beautiful tale these faces have been waiting their whole lives to tell."
— Sabrina Orah Mark, author of Happily”
