On the occasion of the release of "A Spring with Arsène Lupin" by Grégoire Bouillier, published by Éditions des Équateurs/France Inter,

We are pleased to invite you to a meeting with the investigator-writer Grégoire Bouillier, who will discuss with Anne-Julie Bémont, director of Radio-France editions, about his fascinating podcast book dedicated to the hero of Maurice Leblanc,

On Thursday, June 18th at 7 PM at the Hôtel Littéraire Le Swann (11 rue de Constantinople, Paris VIII).

Arsène Lupin continues to fascinate, and his success since 1905 makes him a worldwide myth, still relevant today!

Maurice Leblanc created a unique character. Both an outlaw and non-violent, Arsène Lupin rewrites the rules of morality. Above all, he revolutionized the detective novel by the grace of stories mixing high-level intrigues and sleight of hand with reality.

Lupin has stolen everything: his era, the history of France, Normandy, even Freud! He alone embodies the boldness of creation, radiant childhood, the poetry of the present moment. Which does not exclude darker sides...

Elusive Lupin – except for Grégoire Bouillier, the investigator-writer! Since the age of ten, the gentleman thief has been his philosophical compass, his libertarian passkey.

A Spring with Arsène Lupin is an extravagant and breathless chase from Paris to Étretat, through the traces sown in our imaginations. A mad love declaration to the novelistic and "primesaut". In a word: to literature.
