«Au nom du père et de la fille» is the novel by Françoise Dorin published in 1992 in paperback (140 pages, in French).
Georges Vals discovers on a poster the naked body of his daughter, the star of an erotic film. He expects outrage and shame, but those around him congratulate and envy her for appearing on television, radio and in the press. Françoise Dorin satirises the «paraîtromania» and the craving for fame of the audiovisual society.
For readers of French fiction and social satire on the cult of celebrity and the media.
