Pierre Bottero
Pier Ril' Bottero est né dans un champ de coquelicots au bord du lac Chen l'année du couronnement de Sil' Afian 1er. De famille modeste - son père était pêcheur de coquillages et sa mère dénicheuse de secrets - il a vécu une enfance heureuse et sans souci à construire des cabanes dans les branches des rougeoyeurs, à traquer, en vain, les clochinettes et à rêver, assis au sommet des collines ou couché dans l'herbe. Son destin a basculé le jour où un tigre des prairies a surgi devant lui. Alors que ses chances de survie face à l'animal affamé avoisinaient le zéro absolu, le jeune Fier a fermé les yeux imaginant de toutes ses forces que le prédateur était une douce et inoffensive peluche... Il est ensuite rentré chez lui, sans réaliser que sa

** I am shocked to find that some people think a 2 star 'I liked it' rating is a bad rating. What? I liked it. I LIKED it! That means I read the whole thing, to the last page, in spite of my life raining comets on me. It's a good book that survives the reading process with me. If a book is so-so, it ends up under the bed somewhere, or maybe under a stinky judo bag in the back of the van. So a 2 star from me means,yes, I liked the book, and I'd loan it to a friend and it went everywhere in my jacket pocket or purse until I finished it. A 3 star means that I've ignored friends to finish it and my sink is full of dirty dishes. A 4 star means I'm probably in trouble with my editor for missing a deadline because I was reading this book. But I wa

Timothee de Fombelle was born in the heart of Paris in 1973, but often accompanied his architect father on his travels to Africa.

In the evening they performed plays for their parents and devoured the books in the library. Childhood remains for him the lost paradise which he re-discovers through writing.

Christelle Dabos
Christelle Dabos was born in 1980 on the French Riviera and grew up in a home filled with classical music and historical puzzles. More imaginative than cerebral, she begins to scribble her first texts on the benches of the faculty. Settled in Belgium, she intends to be a librarian when a disease occurs. Writing then becomes an escape from the medical machinery, then a slow reconstruction and finally second nature. Meanwhile, she enjoys the society of Plume d´Argent, a community of authors on the Internet. It was thanks to their encouragement that she decided to take on her very first literary challenge: to enter the First Youth Novel Contest. Great winner among the three finalists, Christelle Dabos has written 4 books in the "La Passe-Miroi

René Char
René Char spent his childhood in Névons, the substantial family home completed at his birth, then studied as a boarder at the school of Avignon and subsequently, in 1925, a student at L'École de Commerce de Marseille, where he read Plutarch, François Villon, Racine, the German Romantics, Alfred de Vigny, Gérard de Nerval and Charles Baudelaire.

His first book, Cloches sur le cœur was published in 1928 as a compilation of poems written between 1922 and 1926. In late November 1929, Char moved to Paris, where he met Louis Aragon, André Breton, and René Crevel, and joined the surrealists. He remained active in the surrealist movement through the early 1930s but distanced himself gradually from the mid-1930s onward. Throughout his career, Char's
