Publicity
We knew Christiane Taubira engaged.
She was elected local, member of the Palais-Bourbon and the European Parliament, candidate for the presidential election, and Keeper of the Seals, Minister of Justice.
Sometimes, under jeers and even insults, she fought against sexism, for the memory of slavery, and defended marriage for all.
Christiane Taubira is a fighter.
We knew she was in love too.
In love with her native land, Guyana.
Of its natural and cultural wealth, which she shares with her readers in her latest book.
An ode to youth, and a call to stand up and fight, to take charge of one's life.
Christiane Taubira is finally a woman of letters, in love with language and words.
Those of others that she likes to quote, and her own that she carries with a sharp and lyrical voice on the stands, or that she puts down on paper in essays which are as much an extension of her life and her struggles public.
Christiane Taubira is now a novelist.
She publishes "Grand Balan", with the Plon editions.
