Seven notebooks kept between 1968 and 1991, in which Pierre Turgeon explores his relationship to writing and the absolute reality. Seven collected notebooks that go beyond the anecdote and the state of mind to take us, with the author, behind the scenes and beneath the scenes of the act of writing, into the identity of a writer-novelist-journalist, screenwriter-publisher. Pierre Turgeon from the inside: the secret universe of his psyche, where fantasy and dream rub shoulders with freedom, dark and bright corners: places of creation, the space of the inner gaze, in Greece, Paris, Mexico, Berlin, Montreal, Philadelphia. With each word, Turgeon plunges into the known and the unknown that defines him and that he explores through the writing of this dive.
