«Le second souffle» is the autobiographical testimony of Philippe Pozzo di Borgo, published by Bayard Editions in paperback (191 pages, in French).
In 1993, Philippe Pozzo di Borgo, executive at Pommery champagnes, suffered a paragliding accident that left him tetraplegic at age 42. Widowed and with two children, he dictated from his wheelchair a story about pain, hope, and the search for a new meaning in life.
The book inspired the film «Intocable»; this edition is from 2001.
Philippe Pozzo di Borgo was a French businessman who was the director of Pommery and the owner of the inherited historic Hôtel de Maisons hôtel particulier in Paris.
