Quand il était gosse, Daniel Pennac passait ses vacances à La Colle-sur-Loup, sur la Côte d'Azur. Soleil, figuiers et grande treille sous laquelle on joue à la pétanque. C'est là qu'avec son frère Bernard il fait la rencontre de Jean et Germaine : lui, grand chauve façon héron ; elle, maigre, rose et rieuse. Toujours de bonne humeur, ils intriguent avec leur joie de vivre. Pas d'enfants, pas de boulot, Jean et Germaine vivent un amour sans intermédiaire, un amour sédentaire, un amour exemplaire !

Daniel Pennac (real name Daniel Pennacchioni) is a French writer. He received the Prix Renaudot in 2007 for his essay Chagrin d'école. After studying in Nice he became a teacher. He began to write for children and then wrote his book series "La Saga Malaussène", that tells the story of Benjamin Malaussène, a scapegoat, and his family in Belleville, Paris.
