With a near-mythic quality, Bessette’s stripped-back prose evokes at once the pain of thwarted love – of desire run cold – and the promise of renewal. Lauded by critics on its initial publication in 1953 for its boundary-pushing style, unusual economy of expression, strange humour and sheer vivacity, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eLili is Crying\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e announces Bessette’s singular take on the ‘poetic novel’.
