Le troupeau d'abeilles - Marie Rouanet
(The herd of bees)


Marie Rouanet, born in Béziers, in the heart of the city, is anchored in the simplest, the easiest access, the most daily. "It is enough," she said, "to grasp the world in which one lives with the totality of his senses and intelligence, in order to find all the rest of the universe."
