As part of the Rendez-vous littéraires rue Cambon [Literary Rendez-vous at Rue Cambon], the podcast "les Rencontres" highlights the birth of a writer.

Listen to author and critic Erica Wagner in conversation with Lisa Taddeo, writer of “Animal”, her first novel published by Simon & Schuster in 2021. Together, they mention her strong connection with fiction, her interest in questioning what society expects from women and the importance of self-criticism in the writing process.
