Reviews
Praise for Paul : "The story of a bright young woman ensnared by an older man is a familiar one. Poet Daisy Lafarge tells it well, in hypnotic prose, laced with the buzzing of insects, the burning of hot sun, the intensity of the man. It is a sensuous pleasure to read as this gaslit woman first loses, then slowly regains, her voice." -- Minneapolis Star Tribune "...this quietly transporting novel of opposing forces--masculine and feminine, disgust and attraction, youth and ruin--is nuanced and unsettling." -- Booklist "Daisy Lafarge's debut is a force to be reckoned with: all sinewy prose and sharp compulsion, with deep insight about the choreography of power and its eerie, unsettling flavor. As she pulls on the loose threads of the male artist's mythos, more unravels than mere secrets." --Alexandra Kleeman, author of Something New Under the Sun "I read this novel in breathless suspense. Lafarge moves deftly between an exterior, idyllic landscape and an interior one of muted menace. A magnetic, atmospheric, razor-sharp work." --Aysegül Savas, author of Walking on the Ceiling and White on White "This book had me spellbound. In Lafarge's confident, gauzy prose, a seductive narrative emerges, one that is absolutely absorbing and transporting. Paul is an essential portrait of the toxic power dynamics in romantic relationships, and a beautiful, immersive story about a young woman finding her voice. I inhaled this book." --Aja Gabel, author of The Ensemble "Poet Lafarge's debut book is a sharp and lyrical portrait of a toxic relationship and breaking free. Every sentence in this moving book is breathtaking." --Debutiful "A beautifully observed debut." -- The Guardian "Lafarge succeeds in creating the sunny, drowsy, sensual atmosphere of Southern France...and the claustrophobic psychology of a predatory relationship." -- Kirkus "I cherished this moreish, dreamy, hazy novel... I know I will return many times to inhabit the world Lafarge has written so exquisitely." --Megan Nolan, author of Acts of Desperation "A work of dark, shimmering genius, which explores the toxicity of patriarchy with excoriating intelligence, verve and originality." --Rebecca Tamás, author of Witch "In Paul, Lafarge has written a beautifully balanced novel that shines an uncomfortable spotlight on all-too-common gendered behaviors and the sociocultural contexts in which such behaviors are both permitted and encouraged." --Hyperallergic "Lafarge's prose is faultless. At first glance, Paul is charmingly readable. Look more closely, though, and you'll find something much, much darker and more sophisticated. Look a little longer and you'll be so hooked you won't be able to put it down." --Betty Trask Award judges, Praise for Paul : "Lafarge is deft....and guide[s] by sustained, brooding tension." -- The New York Times Book Review "The story of a bright young woman ensnared by an older man is a familiar one. Poet Daisy Lafarge tells it well, in hypnotic prose, laced with the buzzing of insects, the burning of hot sun, the intensity of the man. It is a sensuous pleasure to read as this gaslit woman first loses, then slowly regains, her voice." -- Minneapolis Star Tribune "Larfarge uses the thoroughly contemporary story of a traumatized graduate on her European gap year to boldly reinterpret Gauguin's life and legacy...the novel makes it impossible to separate the art from the artist. What, Paul asks us, is so fundamentally valuable about the artist's work that we continue to view, sell, and celebrate it more than a century later?" -- The Atlantic "...this quietly transporting novel of opposing forces--masculine and feminine, disgust and attraction, youth and ruin--is nuanced and unsettling." -- Booklist "Daisy Lafarge's debut is a force to be reckoned with: all sinewy prose and sharp compulsion, with deep insight about the choreography of power and its eerie, unsettling flavor. As she pulls on the loose threads of the male artist's mythos, more unravels than mere secrets." --Alexandra Kleeman, author of Something New Under the Sun "I read this novel in breathless suspense.

Synopsis
A New York Times Editor's Choice "A magnetic, atmospheric, razor-sharp work." --Aysegül Savas, author of Walking on the Ceiling and White on White An insightful look at a young woman's search for meaning, independence, and belonging in the face of a consuming relationship Frances is an English graduate student bruised by a messy breakup. On the spur of the moment, she decides to volunteer at a farm in rural France with the hope that the change of scenery will help clear her head. The farm, curiously named Noa Noa, is owned by Paul, an appealing, enigmatic Frenchman. Frances is charmed by his easygoing ways and by the area itself, both welcome changes from the life she has known. Yet the more time she spends in Paul's world, the more unmoored she begins to feel. It isn't long before murmurings about Paul begin to surface and she realizes how ill-equipped she is for the emotional battle of wills that is smoldering around her, one that threatens to silence and engulf her. In Paul , Daisy Lafarge has written a perceptive exploration of the power dynamics between men and women, told in a fresh and exciting new voice.
