Timeline
Michel Bussi (born April 29, 1965) is a French author, known for writing thriller novels, and a political analyst and Professor of Geography at the University of Rouen, where he leads a Public Scientific and Technical Research Establishment (Unité mixte de recherche, "UMR") in the French National Centre for Scientific Research (Centre national de la recherche scientifique, "CNRS"), where he is a specialist in electoral geography.
Bussi was born on 29 April 1965 in Louviers, Eure.
Bussi usually publishes a book a year, but they can take several years to become popular.
In the early 1990s he wrote his first novel, a thriller set around the Normandy landings, which was rejected by several publishing houses.
He then wrote short stories, but they too were rejected.
Ten years later, inspired by a trip to Rome at the peak of popularity of Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code and after reading Arsène Lupin by Maurice Leblanc, Bussi returned to Rouen with his IGN papers and resumed work on his manuscript until in 2006, as Code Lupin, it found an academic publisher, Éditions des Falaises.
The first manuscript was reworked nine times.
In 2007, his second novel, Omaha Crimes, won the Prix Sang d'Encre ("Blood Writing Prize") of the town of Vienne, Isère, the 2008 prize for first detective novel at Lens, Pas-de-Calais, the 2008 schools writing prize at Caen, the 2008 Octave-Mirbeau prize at the Trévières Literary Festival, and the 2008 Ancres Noires by Le Havre.
For example, Mourir sur Seine (2008) and Nymphéas Noirs (2011) had only modest initial success, but paperwork editions, serialisations and above all his most popular work Un avion Sans Elle have propelled him into the limelight.
Most of his novels are set in Normandy.
In 2008, his third novel, Mourir sur Seine ("Death on the Seine"), was published to coincide with the Rouen Regatta.
It sold several thousand copies within weeks.
It won the Basse-Normandie Regional Committee Prize (Queen Mathilde Prize).
In 2009, his fourth novel, Sang famille ("Family blood"), aimed at both an adult and teenage audience, was published.
Bussi's first novel, Code Lupin, sold more than 7,000 copies, and in 2010 was serialised over thirty days by the Paris Normandie daily newspaper.
In 2010, he contributed to the Les Couleurs de l'instant ("Colours of the Moment") anthology of short stories with T'en souviens-tu mon Anaïs?
("Do you remember my Anaïs?"), set in Veules-les-Roses and based on the "legend" of Anaïs Aubert.
The same year, he changed publishers to Presses de la Cité.
His novel Nymphéas noirs ("Black Waterlilies"), a cloak-and-dagger thriller set in Giverny, the home of Claude Monet, was published on 20 January 2011.
It was critically praised and became a best seller, winning the Readers' Award at the Cognac Thriller Festival, the Mediterranean Thriller Prize at the Villeneuve-lès-Avignon Festival, and the Michel Lebrun Grand Prize of the 25th hour of Le Mans, the Readers' Priye at Sang d'Encre of Vienne, and the Gustave Flaubert Grand Prize of the Norman Writers' Guild, becoming the best-selling French detective novel of 2011.
In January 2012, his novel Un avion sans elle ("After the Crash"), his first work to be set outside of Normandy, was published by Presses de la Cité.
The critic Gérald Collard called it the thriller of the year.
In its first year of publication it was awarded the Maison de la Presse award, the Popular Novel Award and Best French-language Detective Novel (at Montigny-Les-Cormeilles).
