Forthcoming from Dorothy, a publishing project.

From the 2023 winner of the Prix Goncourt for poetry comes a debut novel unlike any other, a lyrical anti-epic about the beauty, violence, trauma, and absurdity of the internet age.

Like Beckett’s novels or Kafka’s stranger tales, The Endless Week is a work outside of time, as if novels had never existed and Laura Vazquez has suddenly invented one. The Endless Week is sharp and ever-shifting, at turns hilarious, tender, satirical, and terrifying.

“Like all great novels, The Endless Week is about life, time, and death . . . and like all great poets, Laura Vazquez has us encounter violence and beauty through sublime rhythms and poignant variations.” —Le Monde
