Camille Kouchner "amazed" by what his book has aroused

Camille Kouchner, who denounced the sexual assaults on her twin committed according to her by their father-in-law Olivier Duhamel, said Monday she was "amazed" by the many cases that her book "La Familia grande" has brought out.

"I'm in awe of what's going on, actually," she said on TMC's Daily.

"I am delighted with this release of speech."

"I was absolutely not expecting that. I still had the feeling that after, precisely, the #metoo movement, Vanessa Springora's book, this evolution in society (...) in any case I was going to be able to be heard. That maybe it was the moment. But from there to what this echo was, no I did not expect it ", she explained.

The revelations multiply

"La Familia grande" appeared in early January a year after Vanessa Springora's "Le Consentement", where this editor recounted her relationship under the influence in the 1980s when she was 14 with a writer who was 35 older.

Since January, the revelations of cases of sexual assault or rape have multiplied, targeting in the world of culture the actor Richard Berry, the artist Claude Lévêque or the television producer Gérard Louvin.

"Presumably it's the society that listens. Because in any case in my book I try to show that we tried to talk for a long time. So there you go: it seems to be the society that listens" , explained Camille Kouchner.

Asked about Olivier Duhamel, who could escape prosecution thanks to the statute of limitations, the facts dating back to the 1980s, Camille Kouchner indicated that she no longer wanted to even see a photo of him.

"I think the day he attacked my brother I stopped expecting anything from him. I don't think I expect anything from him," she replied. .

Olivier Duhamel, whom the investigators in this affair have yet to hear, has never spoken publicly about the facts of which he is accused in the book.
