Collection: DE LA FONCHAIS Jean-Marc - Poetry
Jean-Marc de la Fonchais was born in 1943 in Neuilly-sur-Seine, into a family of six children. Following his mother's illness, he was welcomed by cousins in Mayenne, where he found a new family. His fulfilling childhood in the Mayen countryside forged his love for nature.
His entry into college introduced him to literature and poetry, which became constant companions. Passionate about the land, he chose a higher agricultural school. In the excitement of 1968, he took over the family farm, fighting for its survival. After twenty years of effort, a retraining took him to the Ministry of Finance. Back in Mayenne, he enjoyed the tranquility of the woods surrounding his house and devoted himself more to writing.
