We're hopping across the Atlantic for this week's first post, highlighting a recent addition to the site from mathematician, translator, and Oulipo member Jacques Roubaud.
This reading, celebrating Roubaud's most recent book, Tridents (Éditions Nous, 2019), was recorded at Paris' Librairie Texture on December 4th of last year. Éditions Nous publishers Benoît Casas and Patrizia Atzei were on hand to celebrate this latest book from their press, the sixth in total from Roubaud that they've published. This was also Roubaud's third time reading at the book store.
You'll find video footage of this nearly hour-long reading on our Jacques Roubaud author page, which is also home to a thirty-five minute "Lecture de Poète" filmed by François Sarhan in Paris in 2012. Click here to start watching.
