It’s a doctor’s story. A book based on what the life of a “doctor” teaches, not on diseases but more broadly on human nature and all that it can harbor, to the point of irrationality.

But with Emma, ​​Dr. Jean-François Lemoine especially takes you on a journey. An amazing journey along the inner journey of a young autistic girl through the desert and of course the seas. A journey fueled by the author’s emotions. A passion for human beings without which medicine would not be an art, a passion for the adventure that Dr. Jean-François Lemoine experienced so extensively in the oceans, the ship’s companion to the most famous sailor of the twentieth century, Eric Tabarly.
