I lived in Vienna a hundred years ago... I'm as famous as Shakespeare or Einstein, thousands of books have been written about me. I explored an unknown territory, the human mind. I'm Freud, I'm the founding father of psychoanalysis, and let me tell you, it was no piece of cake! Or strudel...
Anne Simon was born in 1980 in France. She studies in the
Beaux-Arts in Angouleme, and then in the Ecole Nationale Superieure
des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, one of the most prestigious art
schools in France. In 2004, she received the -New Talent- prize at
the Angouleme festival, and she releases her first comic book
-Persephone in the Underworld- in 2006.
Corinne Maier was born in 1963 in Geneva. As a writer, economist,
historian and psychoanalyst, she has produced around 15 non-fiction
books on subjects like psychoanalysis, society, history and humor.
Though at first her interests seem diffuse, she finds the common
links between them. Her books are bestsellers in her native France
and some (such as Hello Laziness) have been translated into several
languages.Her recent work has centered on work, family and the
nation. Hailed as a counter-culture heroine by the New York Times,
she proudly acknowledges not being a member of any club, scientific
society or political party and not being on anyone's payroll.
This is a bold project, brilliantly realised - and even more
impressive for its brevity. It's packed with ideas, but also wit
and humour.
