Hector Bianciotti

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hector Bianciotti, born March 19, 1930 in Argentina, is a writer and a member of the Académie française.

His parents were immigrants from the Piedmont, speaking the dialect between each other but forbidding its usage with their son. Instead, they spoke Spanish to him. Bianciotti began his study of French in 1945. He arrived in France in 1961 and completed his French naturalization in 1981. In 1982, he stopped writing in any other language than his favorite.
