Irineï et le Grand Esprit du Mammouth is a wonderful story, taking the reader through the heart of Siberia to Los Angeles. Irineï is a young boy who, by his powers of connection with invisible worlds, brings back to life a mammoth extracted by American palaeontologists from the frozen Siberian soil and taken to the United States.
Full of suspense and humour, this novel also promotes animal protection and taking care of Nature.
The book is available on the Culturethèque platform
You will find here a video presentation of the Novel by the Author

I enjoyed the talk on Friday given by Nicolas. All praise to him for delivering it in such good English.

Je voulais juste dire que moi aussi j’ai aimé ces petits amuse-bouche de la littérature française donnés au cours du book club en ligne pendant le confinement. C’était d’autant plus agréable que je pouvais y accéder de ma ville à 40 km de Cambridge! Merci Gaël pour vos explications sur les auteurs et les textes.

Merci d’avoir mis en place le Book Club en ligne. Je trouve que nos séances ont été réussies même chez Zoom, tout le monde a eu l’occasion de participer, même plus peut-être que dans notre situation normale. Le choix de courts morceaux – contes, poèmes – a donné la possibilité de beaucoup de variété dans la même heure, la discussion n’a pas tari, et merci à Gaël de nous avoir fourni tant de mises en scène.

I have been happy with all the teachers we have had and all the subject matter – bottom line for me is that it is French and there is always something to learnI am also very much enjoying the Club de Lecture never having been able before Covid to attend.Gael is very ‘sympa ‘ and knowledgable.
