Description
Les Terroiristes or the clan of Très Cantous by Aurélie Soubiran is much more than just a book; it is a dive into an era and a family saga. This fascinating narrative takes us into the life of Bernard Plageoles, a man born in 1956 into a family of winemakers. From a very young age, Bernard had only one dream: to leave, to quit the village, and to escape the overwhelming shadow of his father, a winemaker whose fame extended far beyond the borders.
However, life has many surprises in store, and forty years later, Bernard himself has become one of the most respected winemakers of his generation. This book recounts his journey, a father-son conflict that transforms into a deep reflection on what truly constitutes a man's destiny.
Through the interviews conducted with Bernard Plageoles and his close ones, Aurélie Soubiran offers us an intimate and authentic vision of this complex character while painting a picture of a bygone era, that of 1960s-70s France, where the youth fought for their freedom.
But Les Terroiristes is not only the story of a man or a family. It is also the tale of the birth of "natural" wine and all the identity claims that accompanied this revolution in the wine world. The book also evokes the struggles for sensitive agriculture, a fight that is more relevant today than ever.
Rhythmically interspersed with excerpts from the author's "logbook", this narrative offers us a rare closeness to its subject, making the story even more captivating. This mise en abyme allows the reader to delve into Bernard Plageoles' universe while following the author's creative process.
This book is a true homage to the French winemaking tradition, but also a reflection on freedom, vocation, and returning to one's roots. An essential work for all wine lovers and those interested in the big questions that shape our era.
