Tracing the line of heredity to reveal, just beneath the skin, the letters that shape the sayings of childhood.
The dynastic story of the Benedicts of America, captured by the acerbic pen of the family’s phantasmagorical son and heir, Nathan, genealogist and lay prophet in training. In this story, things left unsaid have sparked spontaneous combustion, and things said have opened the door to a yawning abyss laced with winding tunnels that lead to the meaning of things and the heart of personal experience. This incendiary tale is the work of Emmanuel Schwartz, who is not afraid of anything, least of all the creative process.
Moral
There is no such thing as morality.
Anyone who thinks he is right or fair or certain
Is a fool, a liar and a vandal.
He has been shaped by the fear of rejection and unhappiness.
Faced with the reflection in the mirror of our own conscience,
Are we not all liars and fantasists?
