Metamorphoses

“He is a contemporary philosopher […] which I read along with other books, when I need to be immersed in nature. It’s a reflection on the fact that we are all the metamorphosis of someone else. He writes at the end: “We are the butterfly of this enormous caterpillar which is our earth.” It’s a philosophical look at the fact that nature is in constant metamorphosis, humans are in metamorphosis… It’s a thirst-quenching read, it quenches the thirst for questions; it’s quite complex, but at the same time, it’s a very enlightening and very soothing look at who we have been in transformation since the beginning of time and at our relationship to nature, its fragility, its complexity. It is very beautiful. »

“I’ve heard about it for a long time, it’s a reading that has piqued my curiosity since its release. My mother told me about it, she told me that it really is an incredible read and that she loved it. Then a friend lent it to me recently and I started reading it. It’s like several paintings […], different stories about our relationship to relationships, to sexuality. It’s very, very well written. I’m still reading it, but I’m really captivated, I’m caught up in this reading. It’s about love, sex… Human relationships are dissected from one generation to another. »
For the Sake of Men – Dialogue for Positive Masculinity

“I’ve been reading it bit by bit for a while because it’s very dense. I had heard about it on the radio and I immediately bought it. I’m raising two boys and I really care. We hear a lot about toxic masculinity and that word scares me. At home, we are really in positive masculinity. I have a wonderful boyfriend, we are in the sharing and I say to myself: how to raise guys in this society where men question themselves a lot? The author gives food for thought, she tries to explain why there are a lot of suicides among young men, how they keep everything inside… All that interested me a lot. »
