Synopsis

If Enzo listed his problems, being single wouldn't be anywhere near the top of the list. It might not even be in the top twenty list of problems that he faces on a daily basis.

His grandmother is dead. His parents are dead. His sister and brother are dead. He has no money. No friends. No job. He's all alone in a country that will always seem strange. Soon, he might not even have a home.

And he's so angry. At life. Himself. God. The universe. Everyone.

Except for the man he sees in the market. Something about the man with the red hair (who only speaks English) tells Enzo that the universe might not be completely against him for once.

Between Enzo & the Universe is a story about a boy who emigrates from France with his family to Canada in the hopes that a better life might be found. Enzo arrives in Canada as a boy with a happy, healthy family . . . and ends up a young man with no one left in the world. How does the universe apologize for that?

Enzo meets an American at the autumn festival and over the course of a night, they will share their dreams, their passions, and the events that made them the people they are. They will eat, laugh, talk . . . and come to realize that they both share a dream for the future.

Having read Chase Connor’s A Surplus of Light recently, I was keen to see what his latest offering was like. It's hard to pick a favourite, because both books are equally great. Between Enzo and the Universe tells the story of hapless Enzo, a twenty year old French native who emigrated to Canada with......more

Goodreads review by Starla

I've wanted to read this for a while but I decided to put it off after I found out there's a sequel coming out in 2022, and that was a good choice because I can't wait to read it now. This book is beautiful. It's honest, poignant, and very touching. A lot of the themes resonated with me, and if it w......more

Goodreads review by Kent

This is a young writer’s masterpiece. Twenty-something wordsmith and storyteller Chase Connor delivers his 18th novel and it’s an extraordinary one. This critic ranks it as his best. “Between Enzo and the Universe” is a highly entertaining and emotional (have tissues ready) existential meditation on......more
