The Beast of Gévaudan, what a story!
A legend that the little Sauguain that I was, adored; my children asked me for it and now my grandchildren ask me:
« Grandpa, tell us the Beast. »
There is something of an ogre and a werewolf in this monster that has fed the imagination of generations of kids for ages, he who devoured them so much!
On signing days, I am often asked the question:
- Do you have a book in progress?
That day, my grandson answered:
- Yes, he writes me the Beast of Gevaudan.
It was in Saugues, Haute-Loire, at the book festival at the Madeleine fair, in July.
That year, my grandson was the same age as La Fayette when the Beast raged in the region.
