Comme un roman

Synopsis of Comme un roman

«Comme un roman» is Daniel Pennac's essay on the pleasure of reading, from the Folio collection in paperback format (197 pages, in French).

Daniel Pennac advocates a free and joyful relationship with books, far from school obligations, and recovers the ten inalienable rights of the reader: not to read, to skip pages, not to finish a book, to reread or to read anywhere. He invites us to rediscover the pleasure of reading as a personal act of love.

Work originally published in 1992; this French edition is from 1995 and bears number 2724 in Gallimard's Folio collection.

For teachers, librarians and readers interested in the teaching of reading and the pleasure of reading.
