Alain Farah Matamoros No. 29
September 1, in Laurel, fate Matamoros No. 29 Alain Farah. This book was published in 2008 Quartanier , excellent publisher of Eric Larochellière, Quebec - I explained our affinities Quartanier / Laurel in a previous post . Few, including myself, had managed to get it and discovered that writing and incredibly indomitable - not to reuse the word "stubborn", which I abuse - abundant, generous, where the floor alongside a miller - short and light - analysis Ulysses of Joyce, the head shot of Zizou, Flaubert's correspondence, the "Patator" - description "Patator" p. 27 Matamore , September 1 - became a weapon for the perfect crime, the rules of tennis structure the story, the dark-is constantly pushed leg blonde Polish endless moments of friendship, eternity.

I first eyed the melting Kennedy, of course - since the president appears in the text ... - but it has no plasticity Minion, alas. So I temper my delusions Cratylian this time ...
I also spent a lil shot Prolexis, especially, of course, to eliminate problems of bad typographical spaces ... Because, as you can see in the image illustrating the few lines - and it always makes me laugh stupidly, blindness software - Prolexis remained somewhat confused by the vocabulary used.
Presentation and coverage coming soon: it Pannier Marion - who had already made for Laurel hedges Ida or delirium Helen Bessette and Spent Raymond Federman - working on it ... which
