Very nice book in the form of a daily chronicle of the popular town of Corbeil-Essonnes in the Parisian suburbs. Sophie Brändström moved there for a few months. She takes the time to meet the inhabitants, too often stigmatized, and gives Corbeil an image far removed from fantasies about dangerous suburbs. From residential areas to housing projects, from the city center to the rural limits, the photographer gives an account of the ordinary. From the daily life of young people, parties, barbecues, weddings, school, bars… A superb book far from being voyeuristic or sensational. Simply human. Something calm and soothing emerges from its pages.
