Grasset

A total of 115 authors announced on Wednesday evening their decision to leave Grasset editions in protest against the dismissal of their CEO, Olivier Nora, after 26 years at the helm. They accuse Vincent Bolloré, owner of the Hachette group, of undermining editorial independence. The open letter, signed by figures like Virginie Despentes and Bernard-Henri Lévy, refuses to let their work become 'the property of Vincent Bolloré'.
