Orelien Telison
Orelien Telison is a Haitian-born author who moved to Quebec in 2010, where he worked as an independent journalist with poetic aspirations. His debut novel, 'Either This or Die', released by Grasset, received widespread acclaim, marking a significant literary comeback in France. However, his rise to fame was marred by controversy when it was revealed that he had submitted excerpts of his work to an AI tool for positive feedback, leading to his disqualification from the prestigious Goncourt Prize, which he suggested was rooted in racism against innovative literary styles.
