Self-published book makes history

I not sure who reads French but unfortunately I couldn't find this story anywhere in English. France 24 has an interesting story on a literary first. "L'homme qui arrĂȘta d'Ă©crire" (The Man Who Stopped Writing) by Marc-Edouard Nabe became the first self-published book to be named a finalist for a major literary prize. It was nominated for the Prix Renaudot, the second most prestigious literary in French-language writing.
