«Veuf» is the memoir by Jean-Louis Fournier, published by Le Livre de Poche in paperback (136 pages, in French).
Jean-Louis Fournier recounts the death of his wife Sylvie and the subsequent mourning from a personal and intimate perspective, with the tenderness, restraint, and self-deprecation that characterize him. The book is a tribute to his partner, a selfless optimist who complemented his own pessimism, and turns the memory of their shared life into a moving eulogy.
This 2013 edition belongs to the Le Livre de Poche collection and includes the text originally published by Stock in 2011.
The book is aimed at readers of memoirs and contemporary French literature interested in intimate accounts of grief and life as a couple.
Jean-Louis Fournier is a French writer, and winner of the Prix Femina, 2008, for Où on va, papa?.
