Biography

[edit]

Audrée Wilhelmy belongs to the first generation of Quebecois authors whose whole education was devoted to creative writing. After getting her BA in creative writing at the Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM) and a masters in creative writing at McGill University, she published the creative portion of her dissertation as Oss (2011, Leméac Editions). In 2012, Oss was nominated for the Prix des libraires du Quebec (Booksellers’ Award of Quebec) and was a finalist for the Prix du Gouverneur général du Canada (Governor General's Literary Awards of Canada). Her second novel, Les Sangs, was written as part of her PhD in art theory and practice (UQAM). In addition to writing her book, she led research on the role of visual images in the process of writing. Les Sangs was published by Leméac in August 2013 and was reprinted by Grasset & Fasquelle in March 2015. In Quebec, the book was a 2014 finalist for the Prix des libraires du Quebec as well as for the Prix France-Quebec, while in France it tied for the 2015 Prix Sade. It was adapted into a screenplay by Camila Forteza and Anneke Brier and was staged by Camila Forteza in May 2017, as well as by Jean-François Guilbault in June 2018. In September 2018, Les Sangs was translated into Spanish as Las Sangres by Luisa Lucuix for Hoja de Lata. In January 2014, she won the Writer’s Grant from the Jean-Luc Lagardère Foundation, presented in order to continue her literary work. In December 2015, she defended her dissertation, titled “L'image en amont du texte littéraire” (The image preceding the text). In 2016, she continued her work in research and creation as a postdoc at the University of Montreal, and in October of that year she was a writing resident at the Villa Medici within the French Academy of Rome. She left academia in December 2017 to focus on her novel-writing. Simultaneously, she trained herself in photography and practiced portraiture as well as art photography. Her third novel, Le Corps des bêtes (The Body of the Beasts) was published with Leméac in August 2017 and was reprinted by Grasset & Fasquelle in March 2018. Within this novel, she broaches several taboo subjects, including incest and polygamy, by creating “a nebulous atmosphere supported by what’s left unsaid.” The novel was shotlisted for the Prix des libraires du Quebec, a finalist for the Prix littéraire des collégiens (the Students’ Literary Prize), for the Révélations (Revelatory) prize of the Société des gens de lettres (Society of People of Letters of France), for the Prix France-Canada 2019, and for the Prix du Roman d'Écologie (Ecological Novel Prize). It was translated to English by Susan Ouriou and published by House of Anansi Press as The Body of the Beats on September 3, 2019. In October and November 2018, she was a writer in residence at the Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity, where she devoted herself to the writing of her fourth novel, Blanc Résine, which was published in September 2019 by Leméac. A finalist for the Prix des libraires du Quebec, this novel adds to the lineage of the women featured in Wilhelmy’s novels Oss and Les Corps des bêtes.
