Sophie, une bourgeoise héroïne de chick lit
Sophie, une bourgeoise héroïne de chick lit
/dans Littérature /par Florence BernardinSophie à Cannes, de Sylvie Bourgeois, aux Éditions Flammarion
Après que son mari l’ait quittée en deux temps trois mouvements, Sophie, la quarantaine, sans emploi et sans enfants, se retrouve « coincée » à Cannes pendant le festival, sans connaître les usages et coutumes du milieu du cinéma. Dans un style léger et plein de fantaisie, l’écrivain et scénariste Sylvie Bourgeois raconte les tribulations et les déboires d’une héroïne atypique, et en profite pour dévoiler les coulisses d’un univers qu’elle connaît bien. Une expérience qu’elle entend poursuivre, avec la sortie de Sophie au Flore en mai 2012, puis de Sophie à Megève ou encore Sophie à Saint-Tropez.
After her husband left her, Sophie, in her forties, unemployed and without children, is « stuck » in Cannes during the festival, without knowing the customs of the world of cinema.

An experience that she will continue with the release of Sophie au Flore in May 2012, and then Sophie à Megève and Sophie à Saint-Tropez.
