The last pennac: a literary firework of friendship and inspiration

In the literary world, the latest novel by Daniel Pennac, "Mon Assassin", who has appeared at Éditions Gallimard these days, causes a stir. The author, known for his humorous spelling and unconventional narrative techniques, offers his readers a fresh mix of fiction and reflection on the art of writing.

A special anecdote in his book reflects the playful approach that Pennac and his friend Robert Soulat had together. Soulat, a remarkable publisher and writer, loved to exchange spontaneous verses in the Alexandrin format. This happens in a small poetic challenge where the goal is to create an Alexandrine in a flowing moment of inspiration. Soulat itself once shaped this remarkable verse: "à peine ai-je bandé qu’aussitôt je déband." This brings the ease attributed to it and the idea of creating poetic turns out of the rifle.

But "Mon Assassin" is much more than just a game with words. It is a profound story that takes the reader into the world of Benjamin Malaussène, a figure that has been accompanying Pennac for almost four decades. The novel is an excellent introduction for new readers who want to immerse themselves in the adventure and dynamics of these loving, chaotic and emotional community. For long -term fans, the book offers a kind of feast of nostalgic memories and new insights.

As a variety of work, a connection between the novel and Essai, an imaginative and at the same time moving examination of creativity, character development and the essential role of friendship in literature. Pennac describes this as follows: "Mes Amis Sont Nombreux et chacun est le Meilleur." This statement shows the appreciation that he brings to his characters and their relationships.

However, it remains to be seen how Pennac designs the future of its popular series. He recently confirmed that the saga ended by Malaussène, but the hope remains that his creative rivers will continue to produce new works.

For all interested parties, "Mon Assassin" is an indispensable reading pleasure and access to Pennac's literary universe. The combination of profound topics and the playful use of language makes this book a recommendation for everyone who appreciates the subtleties of the literature.
