La grenouille qui ne savait pas qu'elle était cuite... et autre leçons de vie

(The frog that didn't know it was already boiled... and other inspiring metaphors) , Essai, Editions JC Lattès, Paris, 2005.

A frog gets boiled without noticing it, a bamboo shoot taking years to come out of the earth, a butterfly fighting to come out of its cocoon, a snake who grows dangerously warm... Each of these seven tales provides a unique lesson about our modern lives. This book takes us on an allegorical journey through universal tales, which all speak of evolution, consciousness and adaptability in changing times. This book of charming allegories is a fruit containing seven seeds of condensed wisdom, which will help readers start their own inner garden.
