Three great French poets present their unique relationship with the word. Jacques Roubaud, Valère Novarina, and Stéphane Bouquet have long since developed, each in his own way, their moving art of poetry recital. "Poetry," says Jacques Roubaud, "is for the eye as well as the ear." For these poets, poetry is not just a literary genre or just a form, but also word-making that can sometimes stir and realign our relationship with the world and with others.
Jacques Roubaud is a mathematician, poet, novelist, and distinguished member of the group Oulipo.Valère Novarina is a poet, but also a playwright, essayist, director, and painter.Stéphane Bouquet writes screenplays in addition to poetry and works as a translator.
Reading in French and German.
