La soirée aura lieu chez Étienne. Claudia, sa compagne, d’une timidité maladive, a cuisiné toute la journée pour masquer son appréhension. Johar et Rémi, leurs invités, n’ont pas l’esprit tranquille non plus. Autour de la table, certains nourrissent des intentions cachées tandis que d’autres font tout pour garder leurs secrets. L’odeur épicée d’un curry, une veste qui glisse d’un fauteuil : il suffit d’un rien pour que tout bascule.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUne ode à l’émancipation des femmes et à la liberté, tissée avec délicatesse.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePaperback, 192 pages, published 2025.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e- \u003ci\u003eWhat level of French is the book suitable for?\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI'd recommend the book for anyone with around A-Level experience of the French language.
