Le Lien

by Laurent Mauvignier

Elle croit qu'il est parti par goût de la liberté. Il pense qu'il revient parce qu'elle est malade. Les voilà de nouveau ensemble, avec, devant eux, le temps de s'avouer ce qui les réunit et d'affronter ce qui les sépare.

About the author

Laurent Mauvignier was born in Tours (France) in 1967. He graduated from the Beaux-Art (plastic arts) in 1991.

He has published several novels with the Editions de Minuit and his books have been translated in several countries, among them In the Crowd by Faber and Faber (2008). His novels try to map out reality while confronting what cannot be voiced and the limits of what can be said.

His words attempt to articulate absence and sorrow, love and lack; their endeavour is to hold back what sifts through the fingers and through the years.

Jolis passages

[Jean-charles]

J'ai beaucoup aimé "Des Hommes", mais là je suis consterné par le pathos et le ton, faux comme les problèmes éventés.
