See You Soon

“Hilarious and deeply moving – this book grabs you and doesn’t let go. Daphné drops you into the heart of this relationship and makes you feel you are utterly part of it – I could not put this down. One of those rare ones.”

“Irreverent. Hilarious. Heart-⁠breaking. Romantic As if Renoir and Lautrec had been there. As if Paris held its breath. Triumphant.”

“See You Soon is a disarming exploration of the impact, for better or worse, of a massive matriarchal presence on the lives of a granddaughter and her father. Entertaining, sensitive and wryly humorous, it is a fascinating read and, indeed, will make a wonderful film. I can’t wait to see who will play ‘Régine’.”

“How we make sense of life and loss and love and laughter, when the leavings come so quickly and sharply and then again, so slowly and endlessly, is the stuff for poets and musicians and artists and filmmakers and authors like Daphné Rotcajg to work out for us. In her breathtaking debut, À tout de suite, we can all relate and rejoice in those complicated dichotomies and feel not so alone with our feelings.”
