god on earth

A childhood and adolescence in Ménilmontant and Pigalle In this text, written like a diary, in fragments, Thomas Fersen lends part of his memory to a boy whom we will follow to the threshold of adulthood. He grew up in Paris in the 60s and 70s, in the shadow of a fictional big brother, God on Earth. In a story full of humor and fantasy, the author depicts the period of puberty, first desires and romantic encounters. Between fable, personal mythology and poetic monologue For the first time, Thomas Fersen turns to the novel and puts his talent as a musician at the service of a text full of emotion. He kept in his pen the rhythm and the rhymes of his songs, and this immediacy which made him a recognized lyricist. In this literary monologue, entirely written in octosyllables, he delivers a delightful first novel, mixing his own story with fiction. A text brought to the stage In his new show, God on Earth, Thomas Fersen interweaves excerpts from this unpublished book with his repertoire of songs. He revisits there all his personal mythology and his universe.
