Alors je sais pas si je suis bête et que j'ai loupé quelque chose mais je n'ai absolument rien tiré de ma lecture

I suspect I’ll be a bit weird for a few weeks. This time of year, I do tend to slip off the rails, but anytime my age is about to end in a zero I become more circumspect than normal, factor in a global health crisis and sometimes I find myself more grounded than I imagined possible. I picked up this play for a sidelong glance at the Trollope project of what it means to be alive right about now. These Julian Barnes sort of dialogues always reinforce what it is I don’t like about “socializing” as it were. My life appears compact, not dense like the Bard’s lunatics and lovers but I just lack the stamina for ruminating on carbon credits or Lars Von Trier anymore. This strange play concerns three longtime friends. One of them pays a considerable amount for a painting of myriad white stripes on a white background. The notions of fashion, class and expertise are handled and then dropped like Kant and his predecessors. I remained uncomfortable throughout my reading, which is likely the point. I can think of worse ways to spend a humid afternoon.

Pas vraiment d’avis sur cette petite pièce.
Une réflexion sur l’art. Sur l’art contemporain, moderne, sur le modernisme.

Hesitating between a 4 and 5.
I really enjoyed reading the play, I would love to see it on stage. The simplicity brings the depth to the message. I really enjoyed this, if i continue to think about this play I might jump it up to a 5.

4,4 per questo volumetto della Reza che è quello che mi è piaciuto di più in assoluto fra quelli di lei letti sinora. Un’opera completa, con un finale veramente emozionante e pieno di senso (proprio: un bel finale) e nel complesso profondo e divertente. Davvero qualcosa che vorrei vedere a teatro, anche se i lavori dell’autrice, pur se sceneggiati, penso si prestino alla lettura così, tal quale, in quelle che fra me e me definisco “performance letterarie”. Brava! Lo suggerisco come regalo per cari amici.
