In his latest novel "Vous parler de mon fils" (Julliard, 2025), Philippe Besson addresses the harrowing effects of school bullying. During a "white march," a man recalls the events leading his 14-year-old son to suicide. An indictment against ordinary violence, this novel questions the flaws within the educational system and the helplessness of adults. Philippe Besson has authored over twenty novels, including "Son frère" (adapted to film by Patrice Chéreau), "L’Arrière-saison" (Grand Prix RTL-Lire), "Arrête avec tes mensonges" (Prix Maison de la Presse, adapted to film by Olivier Peyon), "Paris-Briançon," and "Ceci n’est pas un fait divers," a novel delving into the intricacies of femicide.
