Title : Carrot Top - Jules Renard - book

Summary :

Poil de carotte is a long autobiographical short story or novel by Jules Renard published in 1894, which recounts the childhood and misfortunes of an unloved red-haired boy. It is undoubtedly in an unhappy childhood that we must seek the sources of the skepticism and irony of Jules Renard (1864-1910). His art of understatement, his dense and precise style, his cruel observation, the economy of words with which he renders the strongest emotions make him a great classic writer. Poil de carotte, his masterpiece, remains, through its writing and its subject, a surprisingly contemporary book, one of those which, according to Jean-Paul Sartre, "is at the origin of contemporary literature."
