Jason Paquet-Garceau
Author
Jason Paquet-Garceau writes from what time does not erase. His voice seeks a precise form for memory, fracture, grief, reconstruction, and the light that still persists in the aftermath.
First book
Entre Chaos et Lumière , an autobiographical testimony and duty of remembrance.
Second title
La Traversée , a novel of passage and inner transformation.
Rooted in
Quebec, family history, and the 1996 Saguenay flood.
Writing path
Marked from childhood by a collective tragedy that became a family wound, Jason grew up with absence, silence, and the need to understand. His writing was shaped in that space: refusing to let loved ones be reduced to an archive, giving back a voice to what was lost, and turning testimony into lasting literary material.
What runs through his books
Human truth
A voice that refuses to smooth pain over and looks for honest language.
Memory in motion
Preserving faces, bonds, and traces without freezing them in the past.
Reconstruction
Exploring how one continues to live, love, and transmit after fracture.
Current bibliography
Entre Chaos et Lumière is the first published book. La Traversée follows that path in a more novelistic form, yet remains shaped by memory, light, and inner passage.
