Cher Ulysse
Tour

Creation the 12th of october 2007 at Théâtre National de Chaillot


Dear Ulysses,

Your Mediterranean has disappeared.

Your sky is now filled with oil-black clouds, the gods are killing each other.

The immaculate, hopeful whiteness of the ‘80s has turned grey.

Something has faded.

You have become Bloom, Joyce’s wandering Jew.

You are a Ulysses who has become urbanised in the foundations of Homer’s greyness.

Your white flag is raised like a last smile ; I nearly wrote sigh.

You sail in circles, and on the shores of Ithaca we now hear only a blues melody.

And yet you are still close by.

And yet you watch us.

And yet you dance again for us.
