Virginia
Virginia démissionne de son job de bibliothécaire dans l’Illinois pour se rendre à la Nouvelle-Orléans au chevet de sa mère mourante. Elle y rencontre Dick, un jeune musicien qui lui rappelle son petit ami de l’école élémentaire, décédé au cours d’un tragique accident. La femme et le jeune homme rejoue des scènes de cette ancienne histoire dans une vaine tentative de rafistoler ce passé trouble. The Mother’s Mouth est une histoire d’amour non romantique où les frontières entre la réalité, les rêves et les réminiscences du passé disparaissent progressivement.Publié en octobre 2006 aux Etats-Unis, The Mother’s Mouth a été sélectionné aux prestigieux Eisner Awards en 2007.
