- Book "Enora, fille-druide vénète", by Jean-Loup Princelle, Éditions Yoran Embanner

In this historical novel, the author responds to Caesar's texts. Between the Proconsul and the young Celtic woman, an epic duel is brought to a close, one that saw the fate of the whole of Celticia at stake. The story opens with the defeat of Alesia, as Enora, taken away as a slave, carries with her a secret mission, entrusted to her by the most powerful and mysterious of Druidic authorities. As Caesar's army heads back to Rome, she is unaware that she is leading a secret agent to her target, whose action will be decisive for the survival of the Celts.
Jean-Loup Princelle will be on hand to talk about his work and answer your questions.
Our other guests, the Teuta Osismi, will be delighted to talk about their work in historical re-enactment.
