Un assassin blanc comme neige

FIRST EDITION. One of 40 numbered copies on pure laid paper from the Malmenayde paper mills, the only large-paper issue.

Christian Bobin was born in 1951 in Le Creusot, an industrial town in central France, where he still lives. His father was a draughtsman. After high school, which he doesn't remember fondly, Christian Bobin, a keen reader since childhood, studied philosophy before working at the Autun library and for a magazine. He quickly began publishing poetry and essays with various publishers, particularly Gallimard. Difficult to classify into a precise literary genre, his texts are like small paintings, poems, fragments of a diary... he admits to living in books and avoiding the literary world.
