"Set in a bizarre and slightly sinister town where the elderly are auctioned off at an Old Folks Fair, the townspeople assail the priest in hopes of making it rain, and the official town scapegoat bears the shame of the citizens by fishing junk out of the river with his teeth. Heartsnatcher is Boris Vian's most playful and most serious work." "The main character is Clementine, a mother who punishes her husband for causing her the excruciating pain of giving birth to three babies. As they age, she becomes increasingly obsessed with protecting them, going so far as to build an invisible wall around their property."--Jacket.

This book is at once the story of a "white" mixed-race woman in a "black" world and the story of a "black" mixed-race woman seeking forbidden love in a "white" world. But the story is not a question of white blood or black blood, man's blood or woman's blood. Rather it is the blood of a passion for living, the passion that runs in the blood of those who are capable of loving life itself.
