Title : A Wild Herb Soup - Emilie Carles - book
Summary :
A miserabilist novel, a tearful tale? That was the pitfall. But the old lady is not one of those who laments or pities herself. She exudes a quiet strength, unfailing health, even an astonishing joy. In this rural world that believes only in God and authority, she professes feminism, anarchism, and pacifism. Like her grandchildren today. She accepts no fatality, no submission. And fights in the name of an ideal that nothing will undermine. " Janick Jossin, L'Express "Let no one expect from this Wild Herb Soup a pleasant collection of picturesque stories, an anthology of country traits, old herbal teas, and old moons. Emilie Carles, at the end of her days, took up her pen as one takes up a sword: to fight prejudice, to smite the powerful and the rich, to tell the clever what they think. " Bruno Frappat, Le Monde "Her book is wonderful. She doesn't try to be literary, and she's right there, straight away. Go for it." Cavanna, Charlie Hebdo
