The House With No Name
by Hélène Vandermeer
One house. Forty-three letters. A truth that waited fifty years.
At the notary's office, Margot learns that her grandmother had owned, since 1973, a house in the Ardennes that no one ever mentioned. Her mother tells her not to go. She goes. In the drawer of a chest she finds forty-three stamped letters, addressed to the same woman, and never sent.
