Loïc Clément
Invited to the 2019 Books & Music Festival
Loïc Clément was born in 1981 in Groville. He divides his time between Brittany, New-York and Singapore, and is a writer of comics for adults and children, and author of illustrated albums and novels. He has been a specialized bookseller, a literary dancer, a librarian and a trainer in the field of the book trade, before launching himself into writing. His collaboration with Anne Montel is at the origin of Le Temps des Mitaines, Chaussette, Les Jours Sucrés, les Chroniques de l'Île Perdue and soon Miss Charity adapted from the novel by Marie-Aude Murail. He also collaborates with more hairy people like Clément Lefèvre or Bertrand Gatignol, and funny ladies like Carole Maurel, Sanoe and Yuko Fukushima for a series of comics for young people published by Delcourt. All of them have in common that they deal with difficult and intimate subjects such as school bullying, illness or the loneliness of the elderly for example.
Loïc particularly appreciates white chocolate and likes to be offered some after having read this information provided innocently in his bio.
