Sinopsis

This book addresses the question: what happens after the betrayal?áAnd it comes after the orgy of Why hasn&rsquo,t JB already disappeared (Delere Press, 2017): keeping in mind that the title is in the form of a statement, and not a question, even though the quest constantly haunts what is stated, and remains with us &mdash, quite possibly &mdash, as l&rsquo,intelligence du mal. For, even as writing on someone, even in homage, is always already a writing on, writing over, perhaps even a writing-out of someone, it is also an addition of, an adding of, something onto, where writing is a scratching into a surface, at the very same time as something is scratched out of a material, from a medium.áThus, writing on JB, about JB, is quite possibly literally writing JB&rsquo,s disappearance.áAnd, where what is read, can be read, is perhaps what allows itself to be seen, to be glimpsed at &mdash, the remains of the skin which comes to us, the simulacrum, as it were.áWhere the very disappearance happens in the appearance: otherwise we could not even know of its possibility. Where the very art in the notion of « the whole art is to know how to disappear before dying and instead of dying » lies in the artifice called disappearance itself.áWhich opens the possibility that my reconciliation with JB &mdash, our making up, as it were &mdash, could lie in nothing other than make up itself.
