Mourir before the appliance
Remi David
Mourir avant que d’apparaître
Gallimard
Synopsis
Lorsque Jean Genet meets Abdallah, here one day the central figure of the magnificent text Le Funambule, the young man in his room in his skin and life in Paris. Genet, à fortie-quatre ans, est déjà un écrivain consacré. This is also highlighted by the charm of this acrobat, who has worked for several years at Cirque Pinder. The idea behind the project was his glory: his agility, his experience of the cirque must allow him to become an artiste hors pair. Can I ever comment, after lunch, to forget the tightrope walkers here in the light, the miracle that you can forge from your main body? Rémi David recomposed this story of love and mutual fascination, in a novel full of justice and empathy.
