At the dawn of her 40th birthday, Pénélope Bagieu talks about herself.

She publishes "Les Strates", an album imagined as a diary, which brings together 15 autobiographical mini-stories.

A learning story, the story of the maturation of a young woman's personality between the 90s and today.

The cover is all black like a blackboard or a school slate.

In the middle, a drawing of a little girl, long hair framing a face and round eyes, protruding ears, the nose in the middle of the face and a slight smile.

Above is the name of the author, in school letters:

Pénélope Bagieu

, author among others of "Sacred witches", "California Dreamin" and the best-seller "Culottées".

To open the book, slide the elastic band that binds the faux-leather book to the Moleskine faux-air.

We then discover an album that brings together 15 mini-stories, full of humor and sensitivity.

Pénélope Bagieu recounts herself through her youth and adolescence, a few key episodes which have contributed to the construction of what she is today.

"Les strates" by
