«Conte n° 4» is the children's story by Eugène Ionesco published by Editions Gallimard in paperback (22 pages, in French).
Every morning, little Josette wakes up her daddy, but this time he has no time to play because he must work. Unable to count on him, the girl will have to find how to entertain herself; what follows turns an ordinary morning into a little adventure of everyday surrealism.
The edition is from 1985, belongs to the Folio Benjamin collection and includes illustrations by Nicole Claveloux.
For early readers aged 6 to 9 who are approaching French and enjoy short illustrated stories.
Eugène Ionesco was a Romanian-French playwright who wrote mostly in French, and was one of the foremost figures of the French avant-garde theatre in the 20th century. Ionesco instigated a revolution in ideas and techniques of drama, beginning with his "anti play", The Bald Soprano, which contributed to the beginnings of what is known as the Theatre of the Absurd. He wrote a number of plays that, following the ideas of the philosopher Albert Camus, explore concepts of absurdism and surrealism. He was made a member of the Académie française in 1970, and was awarded the 1970 Austrian State Prize for European Literature, and the 1973 Jerusalem Prize.
