America

France and the United States have long shared a special relationship, defined both by occasional puzzlement and endless fascination. Franois Busnel, one of France’s most prominent literary critics, seeks to bridge this gap with ‘America’, his journal of literature and politics, launched in the wake of the 2016 election. Featuring interviews with Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie and Louise Erdrich and original work in English by Richard Powers and Colum McCann, ‘America’ celebrates the enduring relationship between France and the United States and offers a testament to the essential power of literature to unite in times of division.
