2 in stock - Almost gone!

A small village in central France, surrounded by fields, shielded by walls of forest and a few isolated farms, is home to a factory: a chicken slaughterhouse where nearly all the residents work. Nearly all, that is, except Romain, the outsider, the handyman, afflicted with a cleft lip that has earned him the nickname “Rabbit.” Romain, as adept in the trees where he loves to build treehouses as he is with his feet in the river where he fishes, far from the world, far from the village that has always kept him at a distance and exerts a silent violence against him. Since his earliest childhood, the blond, dyslexic giant has been in love with Solène, the current mayor of the village. So when she disappears, unwittingly entangled in a dark story of illegal waste dumping, it is Romain’s sun that suddenly goes out. All that remains is revenge.

Un petit village du centre de la France, cerné de champs, barricadé par des murs de forêts et quelques fermes isolées, qui abrite une usine : un abattoir de poulets où travaille la quasi-totalité des habitants. Presque tous, sauf Romain, le marginal, l homme à tout faire, affligé d un bec de lièvre qui lui vaut le surnom « Lapin ». Romain, aussi habile dans les arbres où il aime bâtir des cabanes que les pieds dans la rivière où il pêche, loin du monde, loin du village qui l a toujours tenu à l écart et exerce contre lui une sourde violence. Depuis sa plus tendre enfance, le géant blond, dyslexique, est épris de Solène, l actuelle maire de la bourgade. Alors quand cette dernière disparait, mêlée malgré elle à une sombre histoire d enfouissement illégal de déchets, c est le soleil de Romain qui s éteint brutalement.Reste la vengeance.

FAQ

Here are the answers to the most common questions I get asked, please review them and reach out to me if you need more info on something, I love to help you pick the right book, just for you!

Are the books New?

Yes, all the books that I sell during my bookfairs or online on my e-boutique are brand new.. You will be the very first to flip all the pages and enjoy the feeling of holding your own book in your hand.

What defines the prices of the books?

As a passionate small business owner, my goal is to offer a high level of quality imported from France at the best price. I understand that some people may be surprised by the difference of price between French and American books. In France, books are more expensive as authors and illustrators get larger copyright compensations. Also, imports cost quite a bit if you take into account the price of transport as well as the weight of what is being transported. I appreciate your constant support, when you choose sustainable small businesses over large corporations.

Do you have a shop?

My main way of meeting you is book fairs, festivals and private sales. Ordering online through my e-boutique is the best way to support French Authors and Small Minority Owned business like mine. I also have a physical location present in Orange County accessible via appointment only. Please contact me through text to get more information!
