Isabelle Spaak
Isabelle Spaak (born 5 October 1960) is a Belgian writer living in Paris.[1][2]
The daughter of Fernand Spaak and Anna-Maria Farina, she was born in Brussels and grew up there. In July 1981, her mother killed her father and then committed suicide.[3][4] Spaak moved to France later that year, attending Paris West University Nanterre La Défense.[5] She went on to work as a journalist for VSD;[6] later, she was put in charge of the culture pages of Le Parisien Magazine.[2]
She is perhaps best known for two autobiographical novels Ça ne se fait pas (2004), which received the Prix Victor-Rossel,[7] and Pas du tout mon genre (2006).[8] In 2011, she published Militants, a non-fiction work on the French Socialist party. Spaak published a third novel Une allure folle, based on the lives of her mother and grandmother, in 2016.[5]
