1. Les Bêtes
A lyrical, often stark meditation on animals and the human gaze, recounting vivid encounters with creatures both tame and wild while probing how fear, indifference and violence shape their lives and ours; through precise natural description and intimate reflection the narrator blurs the boundary between beast and human, exposing cruelty and compassion, survival and vulnerability, and inviting readers to reconsider moral responsibility toward other living beings.
