Official synopsis Publisher
Fiction. Translated from the French by Andrew Colpitts. Your life consists of passing time, and time passes around you. Walls chip, and you paint them. Weeds flourish, and you pull them. Throughout IN LIFE Eugène Savitzkaya sifts lyrically through our daily comings and goings, through decay and renovation. Pruning trees, scaling fish, washing windows, ironing and eating are among the myriad tasks surveyed in this book. Even urinating and defecating have their just place in the melee of the day-to-day. IN LIFE is a meditation on the quotidian, the circadian rhythms of life that sustain us and dissolve us. With piercing acuity Savitzkaya pays tribute to those actions that consume the lion’s share of our waking hours.
