Rencontre avec Jean Hegland !
Thursday, January 16 at 19:00 p.m.
Librairie "Dans la forêt" 8, Place de la fontaine 43160 La Chaise-Dieu
On the occasion of the publication of Le Temps d'après, where we finally find, after almost ten years of waiting, Nell and Eva, unforgettable sisters from our favorite novel Into the Forest, Jean Hegland, American writer will stop by the bookstore!
Fifteen years after the collapse, young Burl lives in isolation with his two mothers, Eva and Nell. To avoid attracting attention, they burned their house and settled in the heart of the forest. Not far from a large stump, they have built a well-ordered life. To feed themselves, Burl and his mothers hunt and gather. Dancing, music and the stories they invent by the fire punctuate their days.
Protected by their beloved forest, Eva and Nell refuse any contact with the world before. But Burl is burning with curiosity for these humans he knows only through their stories. One night of the solstice, from the top of a mountain, he sees a light that could be a fire of human origin. Despite the danger, he decides to go and meet them. The sequel to Jean Hegland's absolute masterpiece, with an even more impressive mastery and depth.
If Nell and Eva marked an entire generation, Burl will be the unforgettable hero of the next one.
