Description
Since she was a teenager, Juliette, now a young widow with a child, was never satisfied with reality. Instead, she frolicked in the endless possibilities of her imagination, playing with her identity and surrounding herself with real and imaginary characters, giving them whimsical names to embellish the routine of her life. At work, she didn’t miss an opportunity to turn professional and fortuitous encounters into adventures, constantly blurring the line between her fantasy world and reality. Oddly enough, her imagination and made-up stories inspired those around her to accomplish what they never would have dared without her. A liberating tribute to freedom and creativity, La fabulante beautifully combines adventure, intelligence and humor.
