Les déviations Podcasts : Claudine, de la maison de la presse à l'érotisme

When I first met her, Claudine was a newspaper vendor. A solid, unassuming woman in her fifties, she stood behind her counter. A newsagent, in short. Then one day, I subscribed to Libération and received it in my mailbox every morning. I stopped buying my newspaper from Claudine. A few months later, walking down the street, I noticed that her shop had been replaced by an erotic lingerie store. Intrigued, I peered through the window. Claudine was behind the counter. It was Claudine, but not really Claudine anymore. She had lost weight, dyed her hair, and radiated more than ever in her purple boudoir-style boutique, filled with lace, nightgowns, massage oils, nipple covers, but also a few pairs of handcuffs and whips. It took me a while to dare ask her what had happened in her life to bring about such a radical change. It's a cheeky question. But Claudine agreed to lift the veil. Here's the story of her transformation, and it's also the first podcast episode of Deviations, stories of people who have changed their lives.
