finally this arrived
via inter-library loan
although I do believe
that I read it many years ago
in its original French
while living in Ivory Coast...
"how... in these fragments of space,
did the human being achieve silence...
and relish the very special silence
of the various retreats of solitary daydreaming...
(one) knows instinctively
that this space identified with (her) solitude
is creative..."
I am on page 23...
