The Yellow Eyes of Crocodiles by Katherine Pancol

One of her goals is to inspire women to dare to be themselves while keeping a positive relationship with life itself. Her works tend to have an uplifting theme while entertaining, and have been immensely successful commercially.

Pancol is admired for her insights into human psychology, particularly women, and her sense of detail is often shaded with wry humor. Influenced by the American way of life, her style became more fast-paced and eventful. Following the success of her first novel Moi D'abord in 1979, Pancol moved to New York City where she spent the next decade pursuing creative writing and screenwriting classes at Columbia University while producing three more novels La Barbare in 1981, Scarlett, si possible and Les Hommes cruels ne courent pas les rues. While working for Paris-Match and Cosmopolitan, she was noticed by an intuitive publisher who encouraged her to begin writing fiction. She studied literature and initially became a French and Latin teacher before turning to journalism. Katherine Pancol moved from Casablanca to France when she was five. In the United States, she is known as the author of The Yellow Eyes of Crocodiles (Penguin, 2013) and its sequel, The Slow Waltz of Turtles (Penguin, 2016), both translated by William Rodarmor. Her books have been translated into some 30 languages, and sold millions of copies worldwide. Katherine Pancol (born 22 October 1954) is a French journalist and novelist.
