The League of the Useless
In a world obsessed with productivity, what value is there in carving sponges?
Georges Petridis is 80 years old. He lives alone in a tiny apartment and clings to a trade no one remembers. To scrape by, he walks the streets holding up advertising signs.
Until one day, he sees her - a woman kneeling to plant a poppy in the middle of the asphalt. In a city where green spaces are outlawed and every inch of land must turn a profit, it’s an act of quiet rebellion. Her name is Rosa. She speaks of underground resistance, wild poetry, and a kind of beauty that refuses to be useful. She invites Georges into a secret circle of misfits and dreamers: The League of the Useless.

La Maison (The House)
What if walls could talk?
A house tells its own story and shares the life of its dwellers, from magical cooks to travelling peddlers, flying engineers and talking paintings. Children paint ceilings, sheep dig tunnels, pianos burst into flames, crowds dance underground, noblemen talk to vegetables, and in the middle of all the madness, people fall in love.
La Maison is a whimsical fairytale for adults, sometimes sweet, sometimes dark, a novel for people who wish the world could be a bit less serious.
