«Orléans» is the novel by Yann Moix, published by Bernard Grasset in paperback (261 pages, in French).
Yann Moix reconstructs his childhood in Orléans as a territory of wounds and divides it into two parts, «dedans» and «dehors», which cover the same years in brief chapters: the family home, school, friends and first loves. The novel approaches the darkness of that childhood from a contained melancholy, far from complaint, and turns the city into an inner landscape from which the author cannot escape.
Suitable for readers of contemporary French literature and childhood novels with an autobiographical tone.
Yann Moix is a French author, film director and media commentator. The author of fifteen novels and the recipient of several literary prizes, he has also directed two feature films and was a columnist on the talk show On n'est pas couché.
