French writer From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Julie Ruocco is a French writer.
Ruocco studied international relations[1] at Sciences Po Aix[2] before working at the European Parliament for Karima Delli.[3] In 2016, she published a philosophical work, Et si jouer était un art ? Notre subjectivité esthétique à l'épreuve du jeu vidéo.[4] In 2021, she published her first novel Furies noting that the COVID-19 lockdown in 2020 gave her the time to focus solely on the book.[5] The novel, set during the Syrian Civil War is about a French archaeologist who smuggles antiquities from Syria to Europe and a Syrian firefighter turned gravedigger. Themes include the bravery of women, the effects of war and the plight of the Kurds. Furies was awarded the Prix Envoyé par La Poste[6] and was nominated for the Prix littéraire du Monde .[7]
