«Voltaire, l'enfance d'un génie» is the young-adult novel by Frédéric Lenormand, published by Leduc.s Jeunesse in paperback (80 pages, in French).
In 1707, a thirteen-year-old Voltaire studies with the Jesuits and travels through Paris with his godfather: he alternates elegant settings and theatre with misery and public executions. Gradually he understands that writing serves to combat injustice and prejudice; these are the formative years of the French Enlightenment philosopher.
It is Frédéric Lenormand's first young-adult novel, with illustrations by David Pillet, and is part of the Destins extraordinaires collection.
For young readers aged 9 to 12 interested in history and the Enlightenment.
