While the traditional Lent Conferences of Notre-Dame de Paris (which are being held this year in Saint-Germain l'Auxerrois) focus on salvation, the Cerf editions publish

"The 7 Deadly Sins", 

a collection a bit iconoclastic.

Halfway between the novel, the essay and the confessions, three writers

, Laurent Nunez, Laurence Nobécourt and Louis-Henri de La Rochefoucauld

, talk to us about pride, lust and avarice.
