3. Secret Families: Fact AND Fiction
<p>Author Sanaë Lemoine wrote a novel about the child of a secret family - only to realise it wasn't entirely fictional... </p> <p>Sanaë Lemoine's debut novel 'The Margot Affair' is the story of Margot, the secret love child of a French actress and the French minister for culture. When Sanaë's editor asked if there was any inspiration for the book, she said there wasn't. But in this episode we explore the novel's similarities with Sanaë's own experience of her father's secret family - and how writing the novel has helped her come to terms with the past.</p>
