Titiou Lecoq: “Women also made history”

While they ruled, wrote, created, fought, women are largely absent from history textbooks – that’s not an opinion, that’s a fact. Why? This is the question posed by Titiou Lecoq, novelist, essayist and journalist in The Great Forgotten (Ed. L’Iconoclaste), a book that she will present in Geneva and Lausanne at the beginning of April, on the occasion of two events honoring eminent female figures. Published in 2021, the book topped the list of bestsellers in the fall, supplanting France has not said its last word by Eric Zemmour in the Fnac bestseller ranking. A surprise for the publishing world – as well as for its author.
