Josse

In "Josse," Joachim Meyerhoff tells the story of little Joachim. Joachim, who wants to be called Josse because it suits him better. Josse, for whom letters dance and have a different meaning. He sometimes doesn't know where to put his anger when he feels misunderstood and is considered an outsider in class. Josse, who grows up among his father's patients – in a world that is deemed not normal. Yet for Josse, it is the most normal thing in the world. A wonderful story about growing up and what it means to be different. Joachim Meyerhoff narrates with warmth and humor, always at the level of his child hero, who you immediately want to embrace – so curious and open is he in his view of things, and so apt in how he names them.
