«La lettre perdue: les racines de l'engagement» is the autobiographical essay by Martin Hirsch, published by Stock in paperback (279 pages, in French).
The work starts from the letter his father wrote him, a warning upon entering the ENA, which disappeared in 2010. That loss leads him to investigate the roots of his commitment: encounters and experiences that led him to the fight against poverty, his time at Emmaüs and his relationship with politics, with figures such as Abbé Pierre or Muhammad Yunus.
Martin Hirsch was high commissioner of François Fillon's government and president of Emmaüs. The work was published in 2012 in Stock's «Essais - Documents» collection.
A read for those interested in autobiography, social action and French politics.
