At the Gates of the Stars on Atlantic Soir
"If I had to choose one word to define what I found at the gates of the stars, it would be this: clarity. The kind that allows one to look at the past without flinching and at the future without trembling."
A series of exchanges dedicated to the foundations of literary practice: reading, writing, then building.
Through questions such as the pleasure of reading, the duty to say something true, the place of characters, or the role of literature in a digital world, these interviews explore what novels sometimes say better than experts.
Gradually, the reflection deepens: writing like Ernest Hemingway, understanding what founds a work, and grasping how a novel is born, structured, and lasts over time.
The whole traces a demanding path: moving from the taste for books to the act of writing, then to the patient construction of a narrative.
