Ap Lab #5 Cricket Respiration

Attila Slips (Village Voice, March 2, 2011)

Imagine crossing the Comtesse de Segur and the Marquis de Sade, the child hidden by Georges Brassens and the prof, the illegitimate daughter of Reiser and Noddy, the perfect synthesis of a layette and a chopper. Her name Giedre (first Lithuanian), sings alone on stage with a guitar and harnessed its horrors told with a candor of communion.
Scheduled for opening the concert Didier Super, Bataclan, 11 February, Giedre a "mate" the audience from her first song. Sawn, it was! His lyrics, a cynical idyllic scratch where it does that may disturb. It's not black humor, laughter is anthracite. Doris and Desproges found their rosière. His debut album (available only on http://www.giedre.fr/ ) is in itself an entire program. She will also sing
at Sentier des Halles, March 15, at 19 h 45. Is certain: many will pounce. But others will dislocate the jaw in front of a bad taste as delicate. We could eat!

Pre Signs Of Stomach Flu

My new book comes out next Thursday ... Tenor


coverage here and the (very friendly) summary of the publisher:

Friends from childhood, Nicolas (the sender) and Nicolas (the recipient) have formed an inseparable duo in almost thirty years ... Until death do us part. Since then, silence has engulfed a long rambling conversation, the two young schoolboys followers of the four hundred rounds, barely entered manhood.
How to live with the disappearance of his twin? How to exist without that which was a mirror and a reference? How to forgive his departure deliberate? When mourning is impossible to follow all the emotions in a whirl infernal rebellion, love, anger, jealousy, frustration, despair ... By painting a picture of one with whom he lived his initiation founder, the author is therefore aimed at an absent, but the scandal of his absence. Above all, he does not praise a quitter, saying that he is gone: to settle old scores, to wring the neck a shade too stubborn to finish with a union that remains beyond death. Unable to revive him who brought with him many mysteries and unspoken, but suicide Nicolas, tortured character, self-styled poet cursed, is a permanent affront those who survive and make up, modestly, with the real. Letter thrown overboard from one of the finest ships in the world, this text flamboyant style and passionate tribute to a friendship so intense and cumbersome.
here also the principle of the collection "Goodfellas"
When all is said it is not possible to turn the page, write to other becomes the only option. But take action is risky. Thus, after avoirrédigé his letter to his father Kafka had preferred store in a drawer. Write letter, only one, is to choose the end point, get rid of an old story. The collection "Goodfellas" is therefore the request to its authors: "Write the letter you have ever written."
finally, in the same collection, you will find the "other girl" s Annie Ernaux and "Vincennes" Bruno Tessarech.
