Based in Lowell, Massachusetts, Emilie-Noelle Provost brings her own Franco-American heritage to life through her writing. Her second novel, "The River Is Everywhere," published in March 2023, has already been named a finalist for three national literary awards, establishing itself as a powerful voice in contemporary literature.
