About the author

Claude Roy

192 books11 followers
Claude Roy, writer: born Paris 28 August 1915; twice married, secondly to Loleh Bellon (one son); died Paris 13 December 1997.
The son of the artiste-peintre Felicien Roy, Claude Roy was born with an eye for the unusual and colourful, and an ear for words so acute, he always seemed like a child learning to speak and read.

Several of his best known books are rhymes, poems and absurd tales for the young of all ages, illustrated by well-known artists, among whom he had many friends, including Picasso, Balthus, Zao Wou Ki and Zoran Music. Roy's last work was a book on his friend, Balthus (1996). His most enchanting children's books, two volumes of Enfantasques (1974 and 1978) are illustrated by his own witty collages. He wrote a delightful book about the art of painting, inspired by memories of watching his father at work, in L'Amour de la peinture (1955).

" فللكتابة ضرورتان : التوهم و المرض "
" الكتابة عملية الغياب توصلًا الى حضور أقوى "
" فالتاريخ دليل ما جرى على الأرض و الأدب شهادة كل ما جرى في قلوب الناس "
كتاب سلس و هام، رذاذ على العقل و الروح..
اول تساؤل اثاره في نفسي : هل ننطوي إلى القراءة لأننا ننسى من خلالها واقعنا و ألآمنا؟ أم لأنها تفضح ألآمنا و تعريها؟
و اول فكرة اثارت دهشتي من خلاله : أن ربط الأدب بالطبيعة : " الأديب يحاول أن يكون قريبًا من الطبيعة، يلتصق في خضرة اوراقها و يدخل في جذع شجرة أو في جلد حيوان. " و مدى قرب هذا للنفس! و كان هذا النص معبر إلى فكرة أخرى فقد استرحت هناك طويلًا! اظن أن بإمكان الكاتب أن يهب الطبيعة معانٍ اسمّى مما قد يهبنا منها الفلاح و المزارع و الصياد كلما استخدمها..
