On Saturday 11 April, Château de l'Aumérade will be hosting a talk by renowned French rugby player Daniel Herrero on his latest book, "Dictionnaire amoureux du rugby des temps modernes". Daniel Herrero is a writer, storyteller and former French international rugby player, renowned for his humanist and poetic approach to sport, life and human relationships. An emblematic figure of French rugby, after his sporting career he distinguished himself as a gifted speaker and author, developing a singular and deeply sensitive body of literary work.
Through his books, columns and public appearances, Daniel Herrero skillfully blends personal stories, philosophical reflections and sporting anecdotes. His writing, both accessible and profound, celebrates the values of sharing, solidarity, transmission and respect, inherited from rugby but universal in essence.
A true storyteller, he captivates his audience with his lively, colourful and generous words, in which emotion and humour naturally find their place. Daniel Herrero doesn't just talk about rugby: he talks about people, the ties that bind us together and the beauty of simple moments.
His literary universe, imbued with poetry and sincerity, makes each of his encounters a moment for reflection and sharing, where sport becomes a pretext for a sensitive exploration of the human condition.
