Douro Editions "Through reading, we become absent from ourselves and our own lives." Alphonse Karr
A writer is undoubtedly one who is afraid of words, Jaana Seppänen warns us. And presto, she charges ahead, she doesn't care, she charges ahead and sticks her tongue everywhere! Right into the heart of the imperfect subjunctive, because the language this Finnish woman writes in is French. And she writes it everywhere! On the breasts, buttocks, mouth, hands, nails, nose, hair, stomach, genitals, knees, calves, feet, toes of Malou, her chosen friend. Everywhere! Because everything is important. And Jaana, possessing, intends to possess everything! The stories that animate her and her friend have something in common with abstract painting: we can say that they are in the series of effects of delocalization of language, by giving evidence of its mutations. And this throughout a possessed narrative because it possesses this language drifting from sensuality. It's delicious. And free!
