«Le dernier roi soleil» is the biographical portrait of Jean d'Ormesson by Sophie des Déserts, published by Fayard in paperback (288 pages).
For nearly three years, the journalist Sophie des Déserts stayed beside Jean d'Ormesson during his final years and, with his approval, interviewed his inner circle: family, friends, butler and the women in his life. The book gathers these confidences in an intimate portrait of the French writer and academician, with light and shadow, humour and tenderness.
Originally published on 21 November 2018; text in French. In the catalogue it appears under the History category.
For readers interested in Jean d'Ormesson and in journalistic portraits of French personalities.
