Claude Gaignebet

A mental journey - historical, political, musical and metaphysical - in contemporary times, from the Sixties until nowadays.

The 1990s to the present, through the main wars of the last decades - from Iraq to Libya - but also the influence of the East on modern Western musicians (Eyvind Kang, Jessika Kenney, Trey Spruance)

Apostrophes was a live, weekly, literary, prime-time, talk show on French television created and hosted by Bernard Pivot. It ran for fifteen years (724 episodes) from January 10, 1975, to June 22, 1990, and was one of the most watched shows on French television (around 6 million regular viewers). It was broadcast on Friday nights on the channel France 2 (which was called "Antenne 2" from 1975 to 1992). The hourlong show was devoted to books, authors and literature. The format varied between one-on-one interviews with a single author and open discussions between four or five authors.
