Title: Out of Nothing - Irène Frain - book

Summary :

One day, a journalist called out to me: "You who came from nothing..." What nothing? My father's poverty? I returned to Brittany. The thread of the past was not broken, people remembered. A stunning world was resurrected, a lineage whose existence I was unaware of: harshness and wonders, austerity and truculence, comicality, poetry. The very spirit of my father, the humbled one who never bowed to adversity.

Born in Brittany, Irène Frain is a writer. Her novels include: The Nabob , Family Secret , Devi, The Fatal Man And The Castaways of Tromelin Island , 2009 Relay Prize for the escape novel and Grand Prix Palatine for the historical novel.

“A beautiful book of memory, light and filial love.”

Bernard Pivot, The Sunday Journal

“The most personal and powerful work ever signed by the author of the Nabab . »
