And Again Artaud.
Nor could I resist the above page, the very last one of Artaud’s last Ivry notebook, written the day before he died:
the same character
thus returns each
morning (it’s another one)
to fulfill his revolting
criminal and murderous
sinister function which
is to
maintain
bewitchment over
me
to continue to
make of me
that eternally
bewitched
etc etc

C’est relativement étrange de voir Artaud écrire sur un cahier à cinq lignes, sachant que j’avais fait de même à l’école primaire à Strasbourg dans les années 80. Je me demande, depuis combien d’années est ce que ce format existe?
