Praise for Gaétan Soucy and The Little Girl Who Was Too Fond of Matches: "Short, sharp, very successful." -- Globe and Mail "Soucy is a master of suspense . . . While the tale becomes more explicit as it progresses, it also becomes more bewitching, more mysteriously pulsating." -- Le Monde "Takes a short time to read and a long time to forget." -- Toronto Star "A magnificent novel, writing that dazzles." -- Elle (France) "The darkness at the heart of this story takes some ferreting out, the horror all the more affecting because it has become so everyday." -- Georgia Straight
