Nov. 3
In a working-class district of Paris, a devoted mother, sometimes overwhelmed and excessive, tries to raise five boys in spite of adversity and an alcoholic father. For one of them, the need to write echoes the dramas and joys that have plagued him since childhood. As if real life were here, in words and a demented memory.
Born in 1990, Thibault Daelman studied art and now runs creative writing workshops, notably at the Sorbonne. L'Entroubli is his first novel and, havingbeen shortlisted for France Culture's Prix du Roman des Etudiants, the author will be meeting with amU students, who will host the event, open to all.
Meet on the 2nd floor of Fenouillères library on Monday November 3 at 2.30pm.
