Boulevard de la Villette, Paris 10\u1d49, le 16 d\u00e9cembre 2017<\/strong>

Je lis dehors m\u00eame en hiver, m\u00eame quand le froid me g\u00e8le les doigts. J\u2019aime l\u2019id\u00e9e qu\u2019un livre puisse r\u00e9chau\ufb00er davantage qu\u2019un caf\u00e9. Les bancs publics ont toujours \u00e9t\u00e9 mes bureaux provisoires. Je choisis celui qui regarde le vide plut\u00f4t que la foule. J\u2019ai appris \u00e0 supporter les pigeons, \u00e0 ne plus sursauter lorsqu\u2019ils s\u2019approchent de moi. Le gris du ciel ne me d\u00e9courage pas, il apaise mes pens\u00e9es. On m\u2019a d\u00e9j\u00e0 dit que lire ainsi, au milieu du passage, me rendait invisible. J\u2019y trouve une forme de libert\u00e9. Les gra\ufb03tis sur le bois m\u2019amusent, comme si les autres avaient laiss\u00e9 une trace de leur propre passage. Je crois que j\u2019ai plus souvent lu assis qu\u2019allong\u00e9. Les biblioth\u00e8ques me rassurent, mais c\u2019est dehors que je me sens le plus concentr\u00e9. Je garde toujours un livre dans mon sac, parfois deux, par peur de manquer de lecture. J\u2019ai la manie de relire le m\u00eame paragraphe plusieurs fois, sans que personne ne s\u2019en aper\u00e7oive. Je ne retiens pas les intrigues, mais les phrases qui r\u00e9sonnent entre elles. Les bruits de pas, le crissement des semelles sur le trottoir sec, m\u2019accompagnent comme une ponctuation. Je ne parle jamais \u00e0 ceux qui s\u2019arr\u00eatent pour me regarder lire. Le monde ext\u00e9rieur devient plus flou d\u00e8s que j\u2019ouvre un livre. J\u2019ai peur que mes yeux se fatiguent trop vite. Les bancs froids m\u2019engourdissent, mais je n\u2019y pense plus une fois plong\u00e9 dans la lecture. Je ne sais pas si je lis pour fuir ou pour attendre. Le vent tourne les pages \u00e0 ma place, parfois trop vite, comme s\u2019il voulait m\u2019emp\u00eacher de rester. J\u2019ai oubli\u00e9 combien d\u2019heures j\u2019ai pass\u00e9es ainsi, sans bouger, \u00e0laisser passer les saisons. Les passants m\u2019e\ufb04eurent, ils ne me voient pas. J\u2019ai toujours r\u00eav\u00e9 d\u2019\u00e9crire un livre que quelqu\u2019un lirait dehors, dans cette position inconfortable. Je pr\u00e9f\u00e8re les chapitres courts, qui s\u2019interrompent comme une marche suspendue. Le froid donne aux mots une intensit\u00e9 particuli\u00e8re. J\u2019aime la compagnie des feuilles mortes, elles me rappellent l\u2019automne de mon enfance. Je crois que je lis pour me souvenir. Le banc est mon refuge provisoire, mon adresse sans maison. Je ne cherche pas le confort, je cherche le silence int\u00e9rieur. Chaque livre que je finis ici reste li\u00e9 \u00e0 la couleur du ciel. Je ne suis pas s\u00fbr de comprendre ce que je cherche en ouvrant ces pages, mais je continue. Lire dehors, c\u2019est m\u2019exposer aux regards sans rien livrer de moi.
