Pierre Cormon

He began his career as a journalist with Le Nouveau Quotidien in 1992, then worked as a delegate for the International Committee of the Red Cross in Gaza, Yemen and Rwanda between 1993 and 1996. He resumed his career as a journalist with the Journal de Genève, La Liberté and Entreprise romande. At the same time, between 2000 and 2005, he studied the oud (oriental lute) at the Arabic Oud House in Cairo, under the guidance of the Iraqi master Naseer Shamma. He drew on this experience in his novel Le Traître, which tells the story of a Swiss living in Cairo who becomes embroiled in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. He is also the author of a book explaining the Swiss political system to foreigners and of a novel written directly in Brazilian Portuguese, set during Rio Carnival.
