Bonsoir à tous et toutes,
Je suis donc allée au salon du livre et j'ai pu faire dédicacer mon tome anglais de Leviathan.
J'ai laissé ma carte à Mr. Auster en espérant que l'on pourrai communiquer car je suis certaine que je pourrais beaucoup apprendre du lui.
J'ai néanmoins un petit message pour lui, j'espère qu'il le liera.
"Good evening again Mr. Auster.
You must know and acknowledge you're very gifted to succeed to be publish in both America and France. I myself tried...vainly.
You thought I'm not Irish because of my accent. But if you cruise the net you'll see that I was born at home in Kinsale (Eire) and adopted as a newborn by a French couple. Thus I cannot have a proper Irish accent, but I try my best to be each day more close to it.
Even if I grew up in France, my heart will always belong to Kinsale. I don't know very much about my parents, even my name "Brady" I don't know whether it is my mother of father's name.
I can see myself as an alien : a foreigner in both France and Ireland.
Nonethless I got an advice for you :
Don't look with your eyes. Don't listen with your ears. Do both with your heart."
Si Paule Auster vois ce message, j'espère qu'il me répondra sur mon adresse e-mail :
