Olivier Cadiot's 'Retour définitif et durable de l'être aimé' Integrates His Earlier Research
Olivier Cadiot, after his graphic book 'Art poétic'', has written for theater and now returns to book form with 'Retour définitif et durable de l'être aimé'. The book features the recurring character Robinson, who is tortured by others' words and makes his island uninhabitable through overactivity, repopulating it with inadequate ideas he tries to connect. Despite theatrical speech, 'Le Colonel des zouaves' works as a real-time active book. This latest volume integrates all of Cadiot's previous research.
