Biography

Violaine Bérot, 50 years old, 6 novels. Her life and writing have been inextricably linked throughout her career. She uses her feminine emotions, feelings and intuition when she writes. Born in the Pyrenees, she was attracted to city life for a while before her inner wild child quickly took her back to her roots. She has left modernity and development behind in favour of farming and the simple life. She reflects on what it means to live in today’s world and writes about our misguided ways.
