Six precious and impressive miniatures of exceptional power, written by the free and versatile pen of Leila Slimani, 2016 Goncourt prize winner for her book “Sweet Song”.
Six precious and impressive miniatures of exceptional power, written by the free and versatile pen of Leila Slimani, 2016 Goncourt prize winner for her book “Sweet Song”. Published in the independent, unconventional, weekly political and sociological reflection magazine “Le 1”, the text of the book boldly approaches the matter of dialogue between cultures. Either they are short Chekhov-like stories – “The Devil is hiding in the details”, – or political texts like the “Fundamentalists, I hate you” written in a state of rage and urgency on the day after the attacks in Bataclan, they impress with the unique, unprejudiced, insurmountable grace of their vision. The book is inspired by the basic features that compose the world of Slimani: thirst for freedom and rejection of all dogmatism.
“A versatile writing voice that does not cease to call upon us, sometimes like a whisper and sometimes like a cry”
