Biography

Born in 1981, Caroline Lunoir is a criminal lawyer in Paris.
"A miniature fresquo of a 15^th of  august in a family house of the traditional bourgeoisie that reflects - from exteriors to interiors, from daylight to dusk - the portrait of a generation that no fire supports, that no revolt consumes and that poses a clear and disillusioned outlook on the world. "(Presentation by the editor)
Lawyer by trade, Caroline Lunoir obviously relished in writing this first somnambulistic novel about the consternation of a huge bourgeois tribe who sees the guardian of the family property dare dip her body into their new pool. With a real autobiographical component, the book perfectly captures the mellow torpor of family vacations and says a lot about the difficulty of existing in a large clan. Her warm writing, gently scratching, follows the lines of the bodies, sculpted by social origin and maltreated by the sidelong glances. "(Marine Landrot, Télérama, September 17, 2011)
Women dominate this large family. In number and in voluminous sound. The son is often considered unpredictable. The good-natured husband, happily embodies the authority of management. He is the portfolio, progenitor of political ideas and a figurehead approving the administration of the home. The wife is a mother, hostess, keeper of family ties, an attentive ear, the joy of the household and a figurehead in outside affairs.
