Betnaya, under the sky of Seoul

Jean-Marie Gustav Leclazio-an outstanding French writer, laureate of the Renodo Prize and the Nobel Prize of 2008. A brilliant stylist who published more than forty novels. Carried away by the Korean culture, Leclazio created an amazing brightness of the work about Seoul Shaherezade, whose life, albeit for a short time, becomes a fairy tale.

Betne is almost eighteen, she lives in a Korean village and dreams of studying. A trip to Seoul opens up new doors in front of her, but you need to find a job. Help suddenly comes from a woman named Salome. Due to illness, she cannot go out, so she is looking for a friend who would tell her stories-joyful and not very. Betna agrees, but the more incredible things she invents, the thinner the line between the world is present and invented.

African

“African”-these are more than memories of those years that Jean-Marie Gustav Leclazio spent in Africa, where his father worked as a doctor. This is a story about the origins of his thoughts, aspirations, feelings. It was here, in Africa, that the future Nobel laureate felt and fully realized what freedom was endless, limitless. Freedom that can only be felt on this continent, where wildlife reigns, and people do not know conventions.
