Les dits de Victoire

   
 

The title of the work refers to the character of Victoire, from the Chroniques du plateau Mont-Royal by author Michel Tremblay, whose famous phrases ornate the different chapters of the third book of the chronicles: The Duchess and the Commoner. The piece is not a straightforward narrative representation of the novel but more an echo to the non linear qualities of its narration.
