Education
[edit]After studying literature,[1][2] Lilia Hassaine participated in Le Monde Académie, a program by the newspaper Le Monde[3] in 2012, and then joined the French Press Institute in 2013, from which she graduated in 2015.[4][5]
She worked for Arte, Le Parisien, and Le Monde, and in 2014, she won the 5th Health and Citizenship Award for Best Web Documentary with De mèche contre le cancer.
Television Career
[edit]In January 2018, Lilia Hassaine joined Bangumi, the production company created by Yann Barthès. Initially working behind the scenes, she appeared on set in the show Trumpov, Season 1, presented by Martin Weill, aired on June 27, 2017, in prime-time on TMC, and later joined the team of commentators on Quotidien in September 2017.[6]
The journalist co-hosted the 20h Médias segment with Julien Bellver from January 8 to June 29, 2018, before presenting her own segment, Le Zoom, starting on September 3, 2018, in which she analyzed a news image.[7][8][9]
In 2019, she walked the runway for Jean-Paul Gaultier during Fashion Week.
On September 2, 2019, Yann Barthès announced that Lilia Hassaine would be leaving Quotidien to promote her book L'Œil du paon.[10] She returned to the show on January 6, 2020.
During the 2022 presidential election, she wrote columns for the Spanish newspaper El País.[11]
On June 21, 2022, Yann Barthès announced that Lilia Hassaine was leaving Quotidien after her final segment.
On July 21, 2022, the University of London Institute in Paris awarded her an honorary doctorate in literature.
Novelist Career
[edit]In September 2019, she published her first fantasy novel, L'Œil du paon, with Gallimard. Her book was shortlisted for the 2020 Vocation Prize.[12]
Her second novel, Soleil amer, published in August 2021, explores the integration of Algerian populations into French society from the 1960s to the 1980s.[13] Le Figaro praised her writing as "subtle, singular, and accurate, especially when addressing solitude."[14] In September 2021, the novel was included in the longlist of fifteen books for the 2021 Goncourt Prize. In March 2022, she received the 41st Literary Prize of the City of Caen.[15][16]
Since 2022, Lilia Hassaine has been a permanent member of the Méduse Prize.[17]
Her third novel, Panorama, published in August 2023, is a dystopian thriller about the disappearance of a family and the investigation led by a young police officer. Jérôme Garcin described it in L'Obs as an "excellent speculative thriller." According to Libération, "this perfectly structured novel is a damning critique of societies where people reveal so much about themselves, particularly on social media, while remaining deeply suspicious of others."[18] Panorama received the Rentrée Prize at the 27th edition of the Les Écrivains chez Gonzague Saint Bris festival and the 2023 Renaudot Prize for high school students.[19]
Controversy
[edit]On May 31, 2022, Pascal Praud accused Lilia Hassaine of manipulation following a segment broadcast on Quotidien the day before. In her segment about the media coverage of incidents at the Stade de France, she aired a 15-second clip of Praud linking the incidents to footballer Karim Benzema, which implied Praud was racist. However, the clip was a combination of comments made at different times.[20] Praud responded the same evening via the Twitter account of his channel, and the next day on his show, accusing Lilia Hassaine of broadcasting a truncated excerpt to misrepresent his views.
