By day, she pushes the limits of her understanding alongside Régnier, who taught her that to study viruses, she must think infectiously, allow herself to be contaminated by dangerous ideas. By night, Sadie loses herself in bars, music, drugs, sensuality. Until she gets a call from the past that lures her back across the Atlantic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen her estranged father tells her that a bizarre virus has been found in his hospital, Sadie returns to Montreal and her family, and all the unexpected changes time has wrought, to solve this new puzzle.

What is left for her instead is sinking into the unknown to find out what happens when ideas come to life. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a deeply inventive and singular novel about the power of metamorphosis and symbiosis.
