ANNE ROUMANOFF, THAT'S GOOD
39 years without seeing each other and then a text ("I'm going to operate, it's serious, come see me") that changes everything. In Tomorrow is another night , Yann Queffélec makes the romantic story of the reunion with his little brother, Tanguy. On Europe 1, with Anne Roumanoff, the writer evokes this particular relationship, broken during adolescence.
"I like to give a nice book to the reader"
Counter to the recent news, and the book of Yann Moix which evokes his painful past and that of his family, Yann Queffélec offers a novel about fraternity and links that unite relatives, even lost sight for years . "For me, literature is not dirty clothes that we wash publicly to tear," he says. "I like to offer a beautiful book to the reader."
"I fell in love with a woman and I left my brother"
It is a drama that united, then separated, Yann and Tanguy Queffélec: the death of their mother when they were respectively aged 18 and 15 years. "We then built a boat, we thought to live on it and go around the world with it, but the fate decided otherwise," says the writer. "I fell in love with a woman and I left my brother. (...) There was no room for both," says the winner of the 1985 Goncourt Prize for Les Noces barbares . Will follow 39 years without seeing each other before, finally, a night reconciliation one night of 2019.
