Description du livre
Jean Genet (1910-1986) was one of the most decisive writers of the 20th century. His work, consisting of poems, autobiographical novels, plays and short essays, was the subject of violent attacks, which are still going strong after his death. Some see it as indecent, provocative or an exposé of homosexuality. His defense of revolutionary movements made him a “declared enemy”.
This Comprendre Genet (Understanding Genet) is designed to break with stereotypical images: Genet is at war, first and foremost with himself. What is he looking for? For Evil to explode, leaving readers and viewers lost, haggard, with no one to turn to but themselves!
