Claude Lambert

I had three lives, one in Belgium where I was born and became a Pastor and Civil Rights activist (1940-1971), one in France as a scientist (1971-1998), and one in the United States as a happy mom, reunited with her American children and sweetly retired. I published in French a novel, 50 short stories for children, and a political book illustrated by Virginia Leirens (a companion of Chagall). As a scientist, I edited several books and published 40 papers. LISTEN IF IT RAINS is my autobiography.

I just finished. I HATE TEXTBOOKS. It is a short story about the changes I have seen in a very long life. I know that life is hard. What comforts me is curiosity. It is fun, and if you keep at it, curiosity can one day save your life or save your job!

I always dreamed of writing a love story. I think that girls raised without a father have a harder time finding and trusting love. It is ready to come out as THIS SMALL MOUSE IN A FAST TRAIN. ON CATCHING LOVE.

ON PETS AND MEN This is a series of ultra-short stories about ... mainly pets and a few men. Everything is true in this book. It is a tender view of all the creatures I love, including spiders who like music, orphan birds, miniature rabbits, wise crows, and happy dogs, including a very stupid-adorable one.
