Maylis Adhémar, a childhood under extreme influence

Maylis Adhémar recently signed copies of her book, "Comment j’ai cessé d’être une petite fasciste," reflecting on her upbringing in an ultra-Catholic family. Although she emphasizes that the book is not a personal vendetta against her parents, she anticipates their disapproval. Her previous novel, which explored a woman's emancipation from a similar background, also faced backlash from her father. Adhémar felt compelled to address the normalization of far-right ideologies in her rural community, particularly as they relate to the Rassemblement National. She highlights the convergence of various extremist groups within the party today.
