In addition to writing novels (Where Tigers Are at Home, in English from Other Press and recipient of the Fnac, Giono, Médicis Prizes), he's a philosopher, and, following his participation in underwater archaeological excavations in Libya, he began editing a collection of archaeology books for Édisud. Island of Point Nemo is his ninth novel.
