Curttains For Small Cabin

Dominique de Roux, Immediately (1972)


I do not know very well what led me to Roux. It seems to me that I had noticed his name among many others throughout my reading of Journal of Nabe or simply because he wrote an essay about Celine. Still, as I plunged into this little volume with great relish. Consisting of fragments can be taken everywhere, a moment you can read a few lines and to enjoy the features often dazzling. Roux lived for literature is an expression that takes the cliché but what concerns it makes sense. I realize that the shade is also a cliche but whatever. Chasing Gombrowicz, Pound and others he has given great volumes Cahiers de L'Herne, participated with Bourgois the creation of editions of the same name. Often where it was needed but with a hatred, a rage at heart, one that can not breathe, to be with his family.
reflections on politics, with a penchant for De Gaulle, on women, literature make this book a kind of newspaper scattered burning one who enters it. As long as we consider the interior with respect one can only admire the way not to compromise, to climb up to the writers whom he loved. Roux also finished as a modern Rimbaud, by departing from the literature, except that it would deviate Places to go back. All this is well told in a beautiful portrait visible on the site of Ina . Roux should be a likeable character, certainly demanding of others but endearing.
