This Morning with Gordon Deal October 24, 2022

Enregistrée aux SUBS de Lyon lors de la seconde édition du festival « Littérature Live », cette version scénique de « Bookmakers » prend le pari de réunir les 16 premie.è.r.e.s invité.e.s du podcast grâce à un habile re-montage de leurs propos. Résultat : une super-master-class pour évoquer en 90 minutes l’essentiel des questions à se poser quand on veut écrire un roman, de l’éveil de la vocation à la signature du contrat. Avant, pendant et après l’écriture. Trois parties, trois chapitres, le temps d’une conversation susceptible d'éclairer la célèbre phrase attribuée à William Faulkner (qu’il n’a ni écrite, ni prononcée) : « Écrire, c'est comme craquer une allumette au cœur de la nuit, au beau milieu d'un bois. La littérature ne sert pas à mieux voir. Seulement à mesurer l'épaisseur de l’obscurité. »

En présence imaginaire de : Philippe Jaenada, Alice Zeniter, Delphine de Vigan, Tristan Garcia, Chloé Delaume, Dany Laferrière, Lola Lafon, Nicolas Mathieu, Marie Desplechin, Pierre Jourde, Sylvain Prudhomme, Alain Damasio, Hervé Le Tellier, Sophie Divry, Lydie Salvayre et Bayon.

(Spectacle créé à Brest, en janvier 2022, lors du festival Longueur d’Ondes.)

En partenariat avec Babelio.

Enregistrement : 22 mai 22 - Entretiens, présentation, lectures : Richard Gaitet - Prises de son, montage : Sara Monimart - Réalisation, régie : Charlie Marcelet, Baptiste Dupin, Sahar Pirouz - Musiques originales et mixage : Samuel Hirsch - Conception et mise en scène : Richard Gaitet, Charlie Marcelet, Samuel Hirsch - Illustration : Sylvain Cabot - Production : ARTE Radio - Remerciements : aux équipes lyonnaises des SUBS, du festival « Littérature Live » et de la Villa Gillet
