«Poil de carotte» is the novel by Jules Renard, published by Michel Vincent Editeur in hardcover (155 pages, in French).
Poil de Carotte is the nickname of the youngest child of the Lepic family, a red-haired, freckled boy whom his mother punishes unfairly while preferring his brother Félix and his sister Ernestine. Through brief everyday scenes, the novel portrays with irony and tenderness the lack of affection of a child who cannot express his sensitivity.
Edition from the Nuance collection, with some black-and-white illustrations. The text was originally published in 1894.
Suitable for young readers and for those who enjoy nineteenth-century French classics.
Pierre-Jules Renard was a French author and member of the Académie Goncourt, most famous for the works Poil de carotte and Les Histoires Naturelles. Among his other works are Le Plaisir de rompre and the posthumously published Huit Jours à la campagne.
