Frédéric Encel talks with Raphaël Enthoven
Inspired in 2022 by George Orwell's famous novel Animal Farm, Raphaël Enthoven's new work oscillates between a philosophical essay and a detective story. Denouncing our contradictions, he brilliantly illuminates the dead ends of our time. Welcome to Krasnaia, a perfect world... made by animals. There is no war here. But no peace either. Better: what we call Concord.

No more crime: if the fox ate the hen, it's because he was hungry. In this jungle-like society, a horse with a passion for politics, Vladimir, is constantly trying to appease people and get re-elected... Because it is inspired as much by George Orwell as by Jean de la Fontaine, Raphaël Enthoven's new book thwarts all interpretations. Between a philosophical essay and a detective novel, between an exercise in admiration and a denunciation of our own society, which dreams of an impossible universality, and which indulges in a thousand sociological excuses.
Raphaël Enthoven is a professor of philosophy and a writer. A philosopher, he is one of the five co-founders of Michel Onfray's Université Populaire. He teaches at Sciences Po and Polytechnique and has been a radio producer on France Culture and Europe 1 as well as on Arte.
