Three novels, three themes

This gave first Storman Orwell-inspired dystopia, a dark and futuristic thriller in dehumanized societytaking up the major themes of our current society, between overconsumption, climate deregulation, new technologiesamong others.

I transferred, in part, what we were experiencing as a situation, in my work.

Then it was The mongoose and the cobraanother one exploration of the human soulwhich like the first happens in the not so distant future, where the planet is ruled by a single, dictatorial regime, and where the heir is kidnapped by an opponent. A frame, which wants to be classic in the meeting of two spirits that everything opposes, but which offers a choice of multiple literary routes.

For his latest novel, Silenceit’s a return to the present tense, but make no mistake, this one is as dark as its predecessors, highlighting sensitive themes of parentage and betrayal.

A need

If the subjects of his novels are darkAdrien Loesh, he is someone all smiles. “If I choose such anxiety-provoking subjects, it is because they are, in my opinion, those who offer the most possibilities, the most latitude to describe the characters of the characters. »

I need to write, it’s visceral with me, I can’t do without writing anymore.

He continues: “Happy people, without history, are, in literature, the most basic and do not offer as many choices of writing.
