from The Rooms of Love by Bernard Faucon

Bernard Faucon about his brother Pierre. By age 16, all my friends had crushes on him; he was a major symbol of that congregation of youth and beauty surrounding my early photos. He was generous as only beings who lack for nothing are, giving and taking indifferently.

Who got him started? It had been going on for some time, and we should have suspected something: the constant sleeping, the carelessness, the vanishing money. One winter’s evening, Pierre kept soaking his feet, or so he said, while we waited to leave for the movies. Putting my eye to the bathroom door, I happened upon this baleful scene through a slit in the curtain: his arm in a tourniquet, the spoon, the syringe.

Cela aura été une fois. Cela ne sera plus. Cela est devenu image. Cela n'a jamais été qu'image. Pas de poids. Pas de nature. Pas de mort. Une présence moirée, dans le pur hors-du-temps, lavée du malheur à jamais.

(Jean-Paul Michel, « Autour d'Eux la vie sacrée, dans sa fraîcheur émouvante...», Bernard Faucon, la part du calcul dans la grâce, 1985)

[1881-1882]
