Le sablier des solitudes: roman
Par Jean-Simon DesRochers. 2011
Début janvier. À la tombée du jour, sur une route provinciale, la poudrerie gêne la visibilité. Emportés par une rafale,…
une dizaine de véhicules entrent en collision. Le spectaculaire carambolage qui s'ensuit plonge ses victimes dans l'air glacial. Treize solitudes regardent s'écouler les minutes dans cet étrange sablier où ils sont tombés. Militaire, étudiant, masseuse, peintre, ministre, fillette, ingénieur, camionneur : ils ressemblent à un peu tout le monde et viennent d'un peu partout, sans lien apparent sinon cet accident, aussi brutal qu'imprévisible. Certains en mourront, quelques-uns en sortiront brisés, d'autres tenteront de reprendre en main leur existence. Aucun n'aura vécu ce carambolage sans y avoir laissé ou reconquis une part de lui-même.Les bonnes filles plantent des fleurs au printemps: nouvelles

fil de fer tendu au-dessus de l'abîme. Travaillées au ventre par le désir ou la solitude, par l'absence ou la promesse de maternité, par l'abandon et par le temps ravageur que des couches infinies de fard ne peuvent contrer, elles offrent au monde le visage de la passion et du désespoir combinés, la tension sous la beauté, et le carnage sous le visage peint. Ces femmes sont champs de bataille." -- 4e de couvBurqa de chair: nouvelles

obsessionnels, inséparables de sa vie : la dictature de limage, limpossibilité dun rapport innocent à soi-même, le culte vertigineux de la jeunesse, et son envers : la pulsion de mort, qui anime souterrainement les sociétés modernes. Passé le temps du scandale et celui de lémotion, voici donc les derniers échos dune œuvre aussi éblouissante que brève. Burqa de chair : titre terrible, qui agit avec la force dun boomerang en regard de certains débats actuels. On trouvera assemblés ici trois inédits : La robe , Lenfant dans le miroir et La honte . Les deux premiers sont écrits à la première personne, dans ce phrasé tourbillonnant, suffocant, qui était sa marque singulière, celle dun écrivain en danger . Dans le troisième texte, elle décortique avec une inépuisable férocité son expérience humiliante sur un plateau de télévision. " -- 4e de couvHotline (Fictions)
