Fiction. Translated from the French by David Scott Hamilton. Somewhere in Montr矇al, in the not too distant future, an obscure company offers custom-designed suicides for its clients with one
condition: their desire to die must be pure and absolute. Antoinette Beauchamp is a successful candidate but her suicide is not. Now a bedridden paraplegic, hooked up to machines that monitor
all her bodily functions. she tells her story, taking the reader into the Kafkaesque world of the company and its bewildering cast of characters. EXIT is at once a profound examination of what
it is that drives someone to want to end their life, as well as how that urge can be turned on its head against all odds. Written with her signature brio and acerbic wit, Nelly Arcan's last
novel is a hymn to life.
