Title: The Family Writer - Grégoire Delacourt - book
Summary :
At the age of seven, Édouard wrote his first poem, four simple rhymes that would take him to the skies and make him the writer of the family. But the destiny others choose for you is never quite the right one... With grace and delicacy, Grégoire Delacourt tells us a simple, family story that is funny and moving.
A delicate text, written with a wry smile. [...] the author speaks of the difficulty of freeing oneself from the dreams that others have formulated for you, of escaping the identity they have assigned you. This will not prevent him from becoming a writer. But by ceasing to let life and others decide for him. Raphaëlle Leyris, The World of Books.
