Meeting with Guy Rechenmann at The Little Machine, around the novel “Victor's choice“, moderated by Valérie Doulevant this Wednesday 20 November at 6 p.m..

Where is the share of chance, of choice, in a lifetime?

This drawer novel makes it easier to get confused and not get an answer to this question… However, Guy Rechenmann and Valérie Doulevant will lift part of the veil this evening, at la petite machine bookstore (47 rue le Chapelier), near the Public Garden, on the mystery of chance encounters and the possibilities of life, in joy and good humor.

The meeting will take place around Fred the hero, the Bordeaux who is looking for, Said the guardian of the building, Jimmy the black percussionist, Bob, Clara, Adeline l & rsquo; student and the other characters staged by Guy Rechenmann, on a Bordeaux stage background, action located in the heart of the city of Bordeaux, in 1978.

Fred in the early morning: “A levee with the hens for hiring at eight o'clock and a return from the galley, handcuffed in traffic jams, his daily. Except that he, the money, he doesn't lay it: he will pick them in his cardboard factory, his three figs, by gently turning, so as not to damage them.”

Fred on the bus, enjoying the city of Bordeaux: “Further, Fred always enjoys the spectacle offered by the journey. He plays tourists, he has the mind to that, he is on a cloud. He turns his head to the left, the bus passes the polychrome marquee of the rocky grand bar Castan, there since 1890, then a jewel is revealed, the stock market square, airy, balanced, architectural model but black with the dust of time, in harmony with the ancient royal statue.

Advancing towards the ponant, behind the grids with high rusty spikes, the quays and its soot hangars take place, the buildings are alike, identical, dreary, decrepit, always watched by the skeleton of ghostly cranes but Fred finds character in them at this precise moment and even a certain charm.”

Laughs, interrogations, answers maybe will be there this Wednesday 20 November 2013, at 18 o'clock…
