This Thursday, May 30, the big topic of conversation and concern was the weather conditions. It has never rained so much in May. But the gods of literature and celebration had spoken, and the clouds parted as the festivities opened. A large and enthusiastic audience gathered at the Raphael Hotel to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Madame Figaro Heroine Grand Prix. There was indeed a brief hailstorm, but it was at the time of the announcement of the prizes, everyone was inside, this creaking of the roofs as if the heavens were applauding the winners.
