Godard captures nuances in Intimate Journal

Intimate Journal review

[W]ith its short episodes attached at the end, which echo the diary’s themes, [Intimate Journal] turns into a gorgeous, organically coherent and fully formed meditation on the nature of biography, self-reflection, anger, art, friendship and lesbian life.... This prose is so eloquent, so precise, you feel privileged to be allowed inside [Nicole Brossard’s] head.... Give credit to the translator, Barbara Godard, who by capturing Brossard’s French nuances sheds new light on one of the country’s most gifted artists.
