Serge Koster (3 August 1940 – 12 January 2022) was a French writer and academic.[1]
Biography
Koster was born on 3 August 1940,[2] into an Ashkenazi Jewish family from Poland. He met his wife, Geneviève, in 1960 and had a daughter, Delphine, as well as three grandchildren.[3] In 1970, his father died in a traffic collision, which prompted him to write Le soleil ni la mort in 1975, edited by Maurice Nadeau.
After earning an agrégation in grammar, Koster became a French teacher at the Lycée Voltaire in Paris. He was a literary critic for the radio program Le Panorama that was broadcast on France Culture. He also edited the magazine La Quinzaine littéraire. Since 2015, he served on the editorial board of La Nouvelle Quinzaine littéraire. [4]
Koster died on 12 January 2022, at the age of 81.[5]
