Grégoire Polet

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Grégoire Polet receives the prix Amerigo-Vespucci 4 October 2015

Grégoire Polet (15 April 1978, Uccle) is a Belgian writer and poet.

Biography

Also a translator, Grégoire is a Doctor of Arts of the Université catholique de Louvain, specializing in Spanish literature. He is now a full-time writer and lives in Barcelona. For his inspiration he often found himself in the cities that concerned his history: when he wrote Madrid ne dort pas, his first book, he rented an apartment in Madrid. The same goes for Chucho whose action takes place in Barcelona.

At Lycée Martin V in Louvain-la-Neuve (Belgium), he was fellow with writer Jean-François Dauven [fr]. Their novels manifestly maintain close relations: often choral novels, written in the present of the indicative, very numerous and recurring characters from one book to another, always staged in urban areas (Paris, Rome, Brussels, Madrid, Prague, Barcelona, etc.), with a predilection for the representation of the simultaneity of destinies in an urban context.
