Ton ombre émoi
Your Shadow of Emotion
Si je devais compter le nombre de "putes" et de "salopes", si chaque insulte était note, je serais mélodie, concerto, symphonie. Premier mouvement "Allegro", je suis soliste, je marche, tête haute. "Adagio", je presse le pas. "Allegro", vous ne m'empêcherez pas d'avancer, je suis et je serai. Revisiter l'enfance, arpenter l'intime, interroger les corps. Entre poésie, nouvelle et récit, Ton ombre émoi incite le lecteur, la lectrice à travers les questions de l’enquête à se demander : et moi ? Et moi, qu’aurais-je répondu ? Combien de cases cochées ou pas ?
thèmes : agressions sexuelles, sexisme, VSS, adolescence
Jacinthe Mazzocchetti, anthropologue, s’investit dans des associations et ateliers d’écriture. Elle a été lauréate du « Prix Marguerite Van de Wiele 2017 » et du « Prix de la nouvelle éditée 2017 ».
If I had to count the number of "whores" and "sluts," if each insult were a note, I would be a melody, a concerto, a symphony. First movement, "Allegro," I am a soloist, I walk with my head held high. "Adagio," I quicken my pace. "Allegro," you won't stop me from moving forward, I am and I will be. Revisit childhood, explore the intimate, question bodies. Between poetry, short story, and narrative, "Ton ombre émoi" (Your Shadow of Emotion) encourages the reader, through the questions of the investigation, to ask themselves: what about me? And what would I have answered? How many points were checked or not?
Themes: sexual assault, sexism, sexual and sexist violence, adolescence
