Description
THE LITERARY SENSATION THAT STORMED THE WORLD, THE PHENOMENAL FRENCH BESTSELLER HAS SOLD 350,000 COPIES THE BOOK THAT SPARKED THE VIRAL #METOOINCEST MOVEMENT
A family's secret weighs on everyone...
THE FAMILIA GRANDE is a tender, groundbreaking and lacerating memoir written by a sister who could no longer remain silent...
Set in amongst the French intellectual elite in Paris and their lavender scented estates in Provence, it tells a story of a corrosive secret that sits in a family for decades and ultimately razes it and the political, literary elite that enabled its silence, to the ground.
Already an international bestseller, it has touched a nerve across the globe and has brought about a powerful reckoning of incest, and its far-reaching trauma.
The Familia Grande is a book of a generation.
'The courage of a sister who could no longer keep quiet.' - EMMANUEL MACRON 'Camille's battle to liberate herself from a painful family secret has touched a nerve across France' - THE NEW YORK TIMES
