@lovelylovely
we are in the hands of men
whose power and wealth
have separated them
from the reality of daily life
and from the imagination.
We have a right to be afraid.

J'aime bien lire des nouvelles. Si les anglophones (#NadineGordimer, #LuciaBerlin, #GracePaley, #RaymondCarver, #JosephConrad évidemment...) sont omniprésents dans ma bibliothèque, j'y ai récemment ajouté la Russe Dina Rubina ("Zoom avant", Phébus, 2006, trad Yves Gauthier) dont le récit d'un tournage de film improbable à Tachkent est un véritable bijou d'auto-dérision, d'humour noir et de désillusion. La couverture du livre (Poumeyrol, 1978) renvoie à la nouvelle sur Venise.
