Welcome to my site!

I just published a new book on superheroes in March 2024!  

I am a French writer and scholar, living in the Netherlands since 2011. 

I also worked at the French embassy in Beirut, was a partner in a film production company based in Paris, and am now the happy father of two children. 

​I have published books in France, Belgium, The Netherlands, and Romania on my research interests: propaganda and public diplomacy, the Middle East, science fiction, and superheroes. I also started a research center dedicated to science fiction and futures studies, CHIFT (Community for Histories of the Futures). I also write fiction books and published a novel in 2014. Another one is on the way in 2025.

​I regularly give talks about my passions and am lucky enough to have been interviewed in Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Greece, Hungary, Kazakhstan, Lebanon, and the Netherlands.
