Au chevets des mots by Denis Emorine
Written in French, 2006-
Preface: Here is a collection of vignettes that invites the dreamer into the elusive, entrancing perpetual fever of poetry. Here you are in the town square of language, where words elope, make love, fight, and part like unsatisfied, restless lovers into the night. It is never enough, it seems, when it comes to language. There are words that masquerade and manipulate, and there is the purity of meaning, as Emorine seems to suggest from the opening quotation used: “And then, we’ll be able to talk without stumbling into those words that cause time to bleed.” —Joë Bousquet.
Let us visit with the work assuming all the roles: as the words themselves, as the silence, as the narrator, as Franz Kafka even. The heart of this collection is in the segment “Fever”, when Emorine declares: “Only silence has the bedside manner needed to respond to words broken down by their plentitude”. You may try to stab its “voice face”, you may try to escape consonants and vowels from smothering you, you may even try to drink the colors of a rainbow, but there is no remedy to the intriguing ambiguity of words. -Lina ramona Vitkauskas
