Philippe Bouin

Nobody's perfect : I am french (from Calais), but I was born in Belgium and I live in a wonderful vineyard, between Burgundy (Bourgogne du sud) and Beaujolais. Don't ask me if our wine is good, come here and taste it by yourself. So... After my student years, I worked at Hewlett-Packard for so much of my life before publishing two novels in 2000 : Les croix de paille (Prix Océanes. Sélection de la République d'Arménie), and my first Blandine sister : Implacables vendanges (Prix métiers et culture). In 2008, I got the prestigious Cognac award for Comptine en plomb. Most of my novels 24 to day, are detective stories. I also write for the theater. But for a book or for the stage, always with a big touch of humour.
