François Cavanna

The life and career of French novelist and journalist François Cavanna, his leading role in the invention of satirical press in France and foundation of 'Hara Kiri' and 'Charlie hedbo' newspapers.

Georges Bernier, alias Professor Choron, died January 10, 2005. He was 75 years old. The few death notices that appeared in the French press mainly focused on the scatological nature of his humor, or on the good man's provocative side. No one recalled the essential, which was that with his passing not only had one of the great proprietors of the French press disappeared, but he'd taken with him an artist in his own right, quite unique in his own way : Professor Choron.

An official's earlier rise to power had some sordid aspects that are about to be uncovered by the death of his uncle. While he is trying to contain any potential scandal, the man becomes enamored of the daughter of his uncle's maid. This new romance inspires him to forget worries about a public image and focus on a new life -- not any easy objective when unsavory friends and foes have their own agendas in mind.

Вероятно: вода для питья, электричество для чтения на ночь, TSF, чтобы сказать: «Это не конец света, это 01, а теперь страница Небесной Механики». Реализация этих резолюций - первый день новой эры, 01 год. является символом вызова 1970-х годов и охватывает такие разнообразные темы, как экология, отрицание авторитета, свободная любовь, совместная жизнь, отказ от частной собственности и труда.
