\u00c9DOUARD LOUIS
IN THE HEART OF VIOLENCE<\/h1>\n

\u00c9douard Louis<\/strong>, French author
Moderation Isolde Charim<\/strong>, author and philosopher <\/p>\n

In his autobiographical novel In the Heart of Violence, bestselling French author \u00c9douard Louis reconstructs the events of a dramatic night that turned his life upside down. He meets a young man on the Place de la R\u00e9publique in Paris one December night. He actually wants to go home, but they strike up a conversation. It quickly becomes clear that it is a spontaneous encounter and \u00c9douard takes him, Reda, an immigrant son with roots in Algeria, into his small flat. But what begins as a tender flirtation turns into a night at the end of which Reda threatens \u00c9douard with a gun. By telling of childhood, desire, migration and racism, Louis makes invisible forms of violence visible. A novel that, like The End of Eddy, goes straight to the heart of our present - political, stirring, wide awake.<\/p>\n

\u00c9douard Louis was born Eddy Bellegueule in a village in Picardy in 1992, but he gave up this birth name when he left the misery of his parents\u2018 world to go to Paris. From then on, he called himself \u00c9douard Louis, began studying at the \u00c9cole normale sup\u00e9rieure and became famous in 2014 with the novel En finir avec Eddy Bellegueule (The End of Eddy, Fischer 2015). In it, Louis tells of the torment of a homosexual child in the normality of village violence. Both Louis' book and that of sociologist Didier \u00c9ribon (Return to Reims), of whom Louis was a student, are considered milieu portraits of the Front National. The work of Parisian sociologist Pierre Bourdieu has strongly influenced both Louis and \u00c9ribon. Louis most recently published the novel Histoire de la violence (\u00c9ditions du Seuil 2016). Louis wrote a manifesto with Geoffroy de Lagasnerie, which is published in German in the volume Wie wir leben wollen (edited by Matthias J\u00fcgler, Suhrkamp 2016).<\/p>\n

\u00c9douard Louis\u2018 book In the Heart of Violence will be published at the end of August 2017 <\/p>\n
