Biography

Born in 1991, Alice Bottarelli is an author, literary researcher, and host of writing workshops. After earning her degree in literature and literary writing, she won the 2022 Prix Georges Nicole for her first novel, Les quatre sœurs Berger, published by Éditions de l’Aire the same year. Her second book is titled Ombeline et Rodogune and was recently published by Presses Inverses. In her texts, she cultivates both irony and self-derision, and is keen to inject Swiss-French literature with new life through unexpected approaches.
