... that Sylvain Tesson isolated himself in a pigeon house for a month to write Un été avec Homère? Source: The French Review ("Tesson, himself 'écrivain voyageur', spent one month on the Greek Cycladic island of Tinos, writing these essays in a pigeon house, isolated from the rest of the world.")
ALT1: ... that the book Un été avec Homère pits Homer against Mark Zuckerberg? Source: L'Express ("Comment, alors, concilier l'absolue actualité d'Homère ... et l'incompatibilité de ce monde avec la 'prospérité' et le 'confort', 'horizon que prescrit un nouvel (et grisâtre) héros de notre temps, Mark Zuckerberg' ... il fait le choix de Homère contre Zuckerberg, sans perdre l'espoir que le premier l'emporte, dans un retour de balancier." [How, then, to reconcile Homer's absolute topicality ... and the incompatibility of this world with the "prosperity" and the "comfort", "horizons prescribed by a new (and greyish) hero of our time, Mark Zuckerberg"... he chooses Homer against Zuckerberg, without losing hope that the former will win, as the pendulum swings back.])
Overall: @Ffranc: Remind me, but summary section has only a single source, with one paragraph going unsourced. Is there a Wikipedia policy that addresses the sourcing on plot summaries and provides an exemption? Because if they do not require a source then your article is ready to go, with no other major issues. Both hooks are very interesting and sourced, as is the rest of the article. Great work!

Thank you for the review, Ornithoptera. This is what MOS:PLOTSOURCE says: "The plot summary for a work, on a page about that work, does not need to be sourced with in-line citations, as it is generally assumed that the work itself is the primary source for the plot summary." I only included a citation for the quotation, as that is required. Ffranc (talk) 09:15, 22 February 2022 (UTC)
With so many rules, its easy to get confused and not be able to find them all, so I appreciate the clarification and link to the appropriate source! Thank you for your help and great work, cheers! Ornithoptera (talk) 09:36, 22 February 2022 (UTC)
