Nothing predestined this nurse from Oraison to write a book. Nothing, except a drama. “You can leave my beauty” is the autobiographical story of a love story that ends in drama, but which also opens a door to a benevolent management of the end of life.
The author manages in a very skilful way to mix in his story his terribly cruel and unfair sentimental story with his profession haloed by an extraordinary human dimension. Karine and David met again 20 years after a youthful flirtation on the benches of the nursing school. The passion has not abated two decades later, since the reunion is intense to the excess. The disturbed sentimental life of the two protagonists then regains all its serenity. But that was without taking into account Karine’s illness which mortgages future happiness …
David Petit gives with this first book a sacred lesson of courage at the same time as he delivers a message of love to all those who find themselves in this situation: to let the other go without holding him back out of pure selfishness. “With this book I needed to say something, from my experience as a nurse for 30 years, my experience on the end of life, I wanted to share my thoughts on this still a little taboo subject”, explains the young author .
The book was a real favorite of the publishing house Les New Authors, presented to the journal’s reading committees. Current wife. He has since benefited from good word of mouth. The author was, Saturday morning, the guest of Nicolas Laugier at the press house of Sisteron.
David Petit has a second book in the process of being published, a closed session over 48 hours with three atypical characters, representing his clientele at work.
