It is a short text. But a text that contains everything; the main motifs of Julien Gracq’s work, such as the freedom of spells, the underworld drawn by the forest, the sensitive life of places. An unpublished text, which opens the way to other books… At Argol Castle, A balcony in the forestwhich one naturally thinks of when turning the pages of The House. An unpublished work, forgotten by its author himself, that José Corti has just published. And whose powerful poetry, the attention paid to singular and magical feelings, deserve our attention. To talk regarding it, the writer Philippe Le Guillou.
