Reviews

"A tragic comedy in the course of which the supposedly serene protagonist realizes that he is far more rooted than expected and that things are moving in the provinces, even if the familiar structures are still maintained at first glance."

Not to be married off by Emmanuel Bourdieu, son of the famous sociologist Pierre Bourdieu , tells filigree the moving story of a sociologist living in Paris who realizes that he is more rooted in his rural homeland and his past than he has admitted.
