Le Coq chante has been visited by Nasser Brahimi, author of a book that leaves no illusions about hunger in the world. The title is already an evocative play on words, The hunger of the world.

Publicity

This book reviews the damage done to the environment by human hands, damage that makes food production difficult, if not impossible. Then, he lists the economic inequalities that accentuate hunger and its effects. We discuss it in a relaxed tone, and often with a bitter laugh, but we do not emerge unscathed from such a reading.
