“This lyrical poetry unravels the frayed thread of passion, the broken thread of rupture, gathers the precious lights of an intimate drama, the passage from sun to night. Love was, the days undid it, and Christophe Bregaint narrates it without rage or charge, with subtlety and sensitivity. (…) Rich in images of a speaking majesty, the stanzas seize us, the sentences strike us. Sentences in fragments, also broken, haunting, thrown onto the paper in a way sharp enough to tear it. A powerful writing expressing as closely as possible the annihilated marvel, the love vanquished to death. A poignant moment of reading, of cruel beauty.” (Excerpt from the presentation by CÉLINE DEBAYLE).
