![Benoît Reiss, L’ombre de la fable](https://prod.trames.xyz/assets/img/couvertures/_livreCouverture/112943/Lombre-de-la-fable-COUV.jpg)
“A piece of family mythology, according to which a chapel in the countryside was built by a grandfather, engages the narrator in a free and alert exploration of his past. A way for him to resist the pretensions of the “fable” to govern our inner life and to shape our own identity. It is also a way of observing how our representation of the world and of time is elaborated, almost without our knowledge. Benoît Reiss has written a book that is both casual and serious, conducted with the lightness of a thought that is joyfully invented before our eyes.”
