Join us for a literary event with Benjamin Hoffmann, essayist and novelist, and Professor of French at Ohio University. A specialist in early modern literature, Hoffmann brings a rich historical perspective to his fiction.
During this event, he will present his latest novel, La guerre des os, published in 2026 by Éditions Denoël. Drawing on his deep knowledge of history and literature, Hoffmann’s work explores the complex intersections between past and present, scholarship and storytelling.
The event will feature a discussion of the novel, insights into Hoffmann’s writing and research process, and reflections on how historical inquiry can inspire contemporary fiction.
