Goncourt winner angry with publishers and the Ministry of Culture. Jean-Baptiste Andrea denounces the conclusions of a study commissioned by the National Publishing Union on the distribution of income between publishers and authors.

The novelist also said he was annoyed by the inertia of the ministry in the negotiations, which have lasted for years without progress. “I am very angry and I am not alone. We are fed up with these ministers who call themselves Culture, and do nothing,” he said.
