Publisher's Synopsis

In The Eskimo Solution, the 'slyly funny' [Sunday Times] Pascal Garnier brings us a story of a writer whose imagination begins to seep into his real life.

'A gem' The Globe and Mail

Life imitates art in Pascal Garnier's offbeat tale of a crime writer and the murderous protagonist of his novel.

A crime writer uses the modest advance on his latest novel to rent a house on the Normandy coast. There should be little to distract him from his work besides walks on the windswept beach, but as he begins to tell the tale of forty-something Louis who, after dispatching his own mother, goes on to relieve others of their burdensome elderly relations events in his own life begin to overlap with the work of his imagination.
