Welcome to Walmart. A cashier and her fellow workers flick through celebrity gossip magazines on a break.

‘SEE YOU LATER, CELINE’ says a headline. What’s wrong with Celine? Why is she turning her back on her glamorous public life, her adoring fans? And how is her story connected to the story of an unknown woman on the facing page?

It’s not. Until Caro intervenes.

This wild and slippery fantasy from Quebecois writer Olivier Choiniere explores our insatiable appetite for private lives made public.
