A first book for the singer-songwriter Tire le coyote.

With kindness and resilience, Benoît Pinette returns to his childhood, a country in itself, and puts his finger on his painful moments, studying the balance of the times. From there, he builds his understanding of the shifts of the past and his will to do better, to offer better. From there, he starts from the fires; he burns old stories, anxieties, rotten bodies. La mémoire est une corde de bois d’allumage represents a beautiful site of worries and ephemeral certainties, but let’s bet that love will prevail over the task at hand.
