Le Brusc à livre ouvert: meeting with Maryse Burgot

7pm - Maison du Patrimoine au Brusc - Free admission

On a road in Donbass, we've just been hit by shellfire. It's a miracle we're alive. We're driving with our feet on the ground, trying to escape another attack. My phone rings. It's in the pocket of my flak jacket. It's impossible not to answer. It's one of my sons. I pick it up. It's a problem cooking rice. I explain my method. I don't speak too loudly, as I'm afraid my team members will think I'm crazy. But tonight, the rice will be good at home.
