When artist Dominique receives a letter from her dying father, a reckoning with
repressed memories and a pull for romantic and familial love sends shockwaves
through her life, as she journeys to Paris to face the places and events of her
early years. Balanced with visits to the Venezuelan Amazon, where Dominique
explores a spiritual and loving longing (meeting a young guide, Juan), a raw and
tender unfolding of this love story is a parallel to the uncovering of the
shocking truth of Dominique's birth, and her parents' relationship. Pascale
Petit's My Hummingbird Father is a beautifully lyrical debut novel in dialogue
with Pascale's Ondaatje and Laurel Prize-winning poetry collection, Mama
Amazonica.
