Sébastien Gendron is a French writer. He is now just over fifty years old and mainly publishes crime novels and young adult literature. These two literary practices enable him to paint distinctive portraits of our world, with its power struggles and conflicts, as well as some of its wonders. His stories are based on characters who do their best never to drown completely, but who often end up on the shore, gasping for breath. Sometimes it's funny. Sometimes not so much. It all depends on the equilibrium in which these characters live and the intensity with which the drama occurs.
