Living between Paris, London, Berlin and Maine in the US, American writer Douglas Kennedy was a special guest at this year's 'Festival America' -- a literature fest dedicated to North-American authors near Paris. A best selling author in France -- known for books like 'The pursuit of happyness' or 'Leaving the World' -- Kennedy publishes a novel every two years on average. He says he's passionate about "how people construct a life for themselves." And when asked if the job was difficult, his simple anwser is "I get to write fiction, and people read it. That's pretty lucky." Duration: 00:48.
