INDRE-SOURCE
Weekend of May Day. During the French Revolution, my village was renamed Indre-Source. He has since taken his name, but there is always the river that flows endlessly, and whispers among the stones. In places, it is quieter, it gains in depth, the currents are barely visible beneath the surface.
Jacques Tati filmed a movie in 1947. A museum commemorates what was the most significant event in the history of the inhabitants. The House of Feast Day is a place to see http://www.maisondejourdefete.com/
More personally, there are houses in this village of my childhood, this one is by far my favorite quirky wish. In passing, I noticed that all walls had been shot, the floor of the ground floor removed, but the front is, for now, untouched. The cellar where I look for child potatoes for my grandmother is now in full light: there is no reason to fear the darkness in which she was plunged, they are just a memory ...
Bachelard claimed he had a cellar and an attic be afraid to dream. That house was just like this thought: cellar was dark with desire, where there were potatoes, coal and a dirt floor. The attic was hot and dusty, a little stuffy, perhaps, I perceive the smell and I still remember the soft light coming in through the skylight. My father had piled up his toys and I often rode on the sly to watch these wonders without touching it, without damaging them.
There, I learned that the house would soon be transformed into a real estate agency. I have a new reason to love that bit ... estate agents ...
"(...) papa went to other lands
and found someone who understands
the ticking and the western man's need to cry
he came back the other day you know
some things in life may change
and some things they stay the same
like time
there's always time
on my mind
so pass me by
i'll be fine " Damien RICE, Older Chests.
