For having published an absolutely unusual, aesthetically disturbing and deeply subversive work, the writer Philémond Théophile, better known under the pseudonym Prédilhomme, is kidnapped by secret agents attached to the espionage service of the Zozobist regime. Brought before the Repressive Government Commission, a formidable inquisitorial tribunal that sat in the Imperial Barracks, the writer is sequestered in the Bridal Chamber of Death.
And condemned to eat his book, leaf by leaf.
Born on April 12, 1936 in Haiti, Frankétienne began writing in the 1960s. Co-founder of the literary movement Spiralisme, the writer strove, through his numerous publications in Creole or French, to push the limits of language. His work retraces, in an absolute manner, the singular adventure of man, of the sign and of creation.
Through the shattered imagination of her words, Frankétienne reveals a possible/impossible universe where life and death, madness and reason compete for the tormented spaces of language.
