    Any Francophones, does the book sound like AI? I find that in English a lot of the time that something is accused of being AI-written and people cast aspersions on the quality of AI detectors, that when you read the text it’s immediately obvious as AI: chock full of em-dashes, not-x-but-y constructions, unnatural metaphors, and so on.

      The first two chapters can be read online. The text is full of metaphors (many nonsensical), staccato sentences, and X not Y constructions. The rule of three comes up every other sentence, often combined with a zeugma. No em-dashes though!
