Introducción
"Steep slopes
Guest: Marlène Mauris, a graduate in art history and in journalism and communication, was head of cultural promotion at Culture Valais before joining Pro Helvetia in Zurich. She left the position in 2020 to take care of the Sage grocery store and continues to participate in the creation of cultural events. Poet, grocer, public writer, blogger... In 2024, Marlène Mauris joined the cultural section of the city of Sion as a project manager.
Hernovel "Escarpées" is a portrait of a family in the high mountains, in a world torn between peaks and abysses, dizzying in its beauty and demands. Daily clashes between villagers and passing guests reshape tradition, faith, customs and the use of words. The arrival of a French woman in this house shattered by tragedy shatters this quiet intranquility. The novel invites the reader to spend a year with this family in the 1990s. Marlène Mauris' striking writing conveys the awkwardness, excesses, swearing and love of everyday life in the mountains.
Moderator: Manuella Maury is a journalist and presenter. She has worked for Rhône FM, Radio Suisse Romande and Canal 9. She is also president of Lettres. She is also president of the Lettres de soie festival and an author.
