After "Le Club Le Figaro Politique", hosted every Tuesday evening by Yves Thréard, the editorial staff of

Le Figaro

presents to its subscribers its new weekly program "Le Club Le Figaro Culture", broadcast live every Monday from 8 p.m. to 9 p.m. in the Jean-d'Ormesson auditorium, at the newspaper's headquarters.

To discover

  • Find all the results of the legislative elections

  • Discover the “Best of the Goncourt Prize” collection

Jean-Christophe Buisson, deputy director of

Figaro Magazine

, welcomes for the second episode of the program Grégoire Leménager, deputy editorial director of

L'Obs,

Claire Conruyt, journalist in the Political Department of

Figaro,

Nicolas Ungemuth, editor-in-chief deputy of the Culture department of

Figaro Magazine

and Bruno Corty, head of the Literary department of

Figaro

.

An assembly that will talk about love tonight.

And in particular Le

 Jeune Homme,

a small book that has already sold 100,000 copies.

Annie Ernaux recounts her affair with a man thirty years younger than her.

A love poem that can be read in less than an hour.

The great British writer Nick Hornby has released a romance novel like no other -

Just Like You -

against the backdrop of Brexit and class differences.

The story of Lucy, a single 40-year-old raising her two children, an English teacher, who falls in love with a young black man twenty years her junior.

This program will also be an opportunity to discuss the publication of

War,

an unpublished novel by Céline published on May 5 by Gallimard.

The author tells how, wounded in the forehead in 1914, he found himself prey to hallucinations and incessant buzzing.

This book is one of the very many manuscripts that would have been stolen from Céline, when he fled Paris for Sigmaringen in June 1944. A treasure of thousands of pages reappeared in August 2021 through the intermediary of the former journalist of

Liberation

Jean-Pierre Thibaudat who held them secretly.

After

War,

Gallimard editions hope to release

London

, the sequel to

War

, in the fall, but also

The Will of King Krogold

, a medieval legend that Céline had tried in vain to publish.
