Born in Bourges, Patrick Coudreau became a journalist, specializing in ecological and social issues, working first for the written press and then for various institutions. He began writing when he was 14 years old and published three collections of poetry that earned him two literary prizes. He later became interested in prose, never stopping working and going from one project to another. In all, nearly twenty-five manuscripts would accumulate in the drawers of his desk. But it was finally in 2017 that he completed his novel, Maître des eaux, and decided to send it to a publisher. Passionate about ornithology, Patrick Coudreau now lives in the Yvelines.
