Biography

Jean Noli resided for a long time in France, dividing his time between Paris and the Breton island of Hoëdic. He is known to have written a biography of Edith Piaf. Several of his novels are inspired by the sea and the Breton islands. He has been a co-author of books for sailers Olivier de Kersauson, Michel Malinovsky and Éric Tabarly.

The island of Hoëdic is the site of his novel La Grâce de Dieu, which earned him the 1978 prix des libraires.
