Hemingway famously said that 'the best early training for a writer is an unhappy childhood'. Julia Kerninon, one of France's most acclaimed new literary voices, tells an altogether different story in this poetic account of her pursuit, offering an intense view of the world from the standpoint of her compulsion to write.
''The best early training for a writer is an unhappy childhood,'' Hemingway famously said. Julia Kerninon, one of France''s most acclaimed young novelists, tells an altogether different story in a poetic account of her pursuit. Her journey through her formative years entwines the French and Anglo-Saxon literary traditions, resulting in a vibrant ode to reading, and to writing as a space for discovery (as well as a ''respectable occupation''), peppered with portraits of her disjointed yet loving family. From her native Brittany to the city of Shakespeare and Company, to a seaside cafe on the Atlantic coast, to Budapest and back, the author conjures a fluid, feminine answer to A Moveable Feast.
