Synopsis of Paul de Épinettes o la mixomatosis panóptica
This novel -inspired by lived experiences and real characters- is a stark denunciation of the current prison system, a system that keeps thousands and thousands of human beings suspended in a vacuum, pushing them aside so as not to disturb the gaze of the bi-conscious citizenry. It tells the thrilling story of Paul de Épinettes, named after the Parisian district of Épinettes where, after the Second World War, a “famous” juvenile prison was built. Robberies, muggings, friendship, camaraderie, love and betrayal weave this story that outlines the rise and fall of life in rebellion.
