%X There are many physician writers worldwide, but the ties that bind a health professional's expe- rience to his/her fiction writing have been studied more extensively in the English-speaking Literary and Medical world than in its French language counterpart. Based on an examination of four novels written by a French physician writer, first published in 1989, and on an exclusive inter- view with the author, this paper addresses the ways throug which a caregiver's professional expe- rience feeds his fictions and how they, in turn, carry the author's views of healthcare ethics.R¨¦SUM¨¦Les m¨¦decins qui ¨¦crivent sont nombreux ¨¤ travers le monde, mais les relations entre exp¨¦rience professionnelle des soignants et ¨¦criture de fiction sont plus largement ¨¦tudi¨¦s et reconnus dans le monde litt¨¦raire et m¨¦dical anglophone que dans l'espace francophone. ¨¤ travers l'examen de quatre romans d'un m¨¦decin-¨¦crivain fran ais publiant depuis 1989 et ¨¤ la faveur d'un entretien in¨¦dit, cet article s'interroge sur la mani¨¨re dont l'exp¨¦rience professionnelle d'un praticien peut nourrir ses fictions et y transmettre les conceptions de l'auteur sur l'¨¦thique du soin.
