Signe Particulier : Transparente
Distinguishing Feature: Transparent
Written by Nathalie Stragier.
15.4 × 22.5 cm, 320 pages, softcover.
A sensitive and poetic novel, complete
with funny moments and plenty of action.
Esther is a quiet teenager. Even her friends and family tend to forget about her. She often
feels invisible, as though she were transparent. A state of being she is so used to, that it
doesn’t even make her feel sad.
But one day, Esther disappears for real. Just for a few seconds. During that time, nobody
can see or hear her. Then it happens again and again, at an alarming rate, each time for a
little bit longer. She tries to talk about her experience and get help, but nobody believes her.
So, she has no other choice but to deal with it alone.
But Esther comes to realise that with this misfortune comes a fascinating power. She starts
to enjoy it, leading her to discover a parallel world, full of invisible people. But how long
can she go on living between two worlds? A dangerous and unexpected race against time
begins, and Esther must make a choice.
The author:
Nathalie Stragier explores, through fantasy, issues that all teenagers are faced with:
fitting in, being yourself, and self-confidence. A very well-built story, shifting
with ease between two parallel worlds.
Key words: self-confidence, supernatural phenomenon, parallel worlds, friendship, choices.
