Nancy Huston: new book and lecture

Nancy Huston has just published a new book Reflets dans un oeil d'homme (Actes Sud), which teeters on the edge of novel and essay. I couldn't find any information whether or not it will be published in English too.
She will present her new book on Thursday, May 10 at 6:30 pm at the library Apostrophe in Chaumont, France. Please click here to find more information.

Hi Eva,
Have you by any chance found a translation of Reflects dans un oeil d'homme? I want to give it as a present to a friend, but she doesn't speak french...
Thank you so much!

Dear Pia,

I am so sorry for the late reply. I haven't found a translation. She usually only self-translates her novels, not her essays.

any translation in English by 2017?
