Description
Passer of universes, sensor of all songs, of all rumors, Édouard Glissant never ceases to invent his space, his language and his enchantments. He is the one who imposes his creation and his echoes on the world. He welcomes the telluric rhythm of the ages, the scansion of legends and myths. He risks the mixed surge of reality and dreams. His voice is irruption, eruption, overflow of sulfur, flames, darkness, but also of rustlings, of stifling heat, of suave syllables. He goes through the islands of the earth. He thinks and speaks in archipelago, reconnects torrents and rivers: the Mississippi to the Seine, the Nile to the Lézarde river or to a volcanic water buried under lava and fire. This secret geography gives strength to the expanse, meaning to migration and drift to meaning. Édouard Glissant speaks of knowledge in the abyss and the blossoming of words. Creation loves what arises as much as what sinks. Creation comes with its gongs and syncopations. Creation is a fight. Creation is chaos.
