François Coupry

François Coupry (19 July 1947, Hyères) is a French writer.

Biography

After studying philosophy, he was a literary journalist, publisher and editor-in-chief of the magazine Roman (1982–1989), while occupying institutional posts: first director of the Maison des écrivains (1984-1986), president of the Société des gens de lettres (1996–2000), president and co-manager of SOFIA, "Société française des auteurs de l’écrit" (2001-2005, then 2010–2013).

An essayist, storyteller and novelist, he has published some thirty stories in the genre Marvelous, where the world is told from an "abnormal", "inhuman" point of view, and where the ordinary laws and principles of physics have been recreated. His paradoxes and fables question "the role of the creative fiction of reality."
