Short and dense texts, readings, songs and music
In advance of the event, an analytical bibliography "Shortly?" , a selection of short and dense texts containing short texts (stories, poetry, essays) available at the media library. This non-exhaustive selection will serve as a basis for the readings that will be offered in the patient rooms and in different places of the hospital services (rest room, receptions...). It will propose a number of texts of the associated editors (Esperluète editions, the railway, the editions suspensions points...).
The books will be acquired at the bookstore of the associated publishers, rue de Medici. These publishers will be able to meet with patients and staff.
On 18 January, actors, musicians, librarians and the three practising civic services at the media library will offer readings either individually or in groups.
The theme of the short and dense texts seems to us to correspond with the fragmented time, fragmented of the hospitalization and the hospital for the staff.
- A variation around time
- The time of illness, of separation, which has a special character here.
- The shorter and shorter duration of hospitalization
- Increasingly dense time for staff
These readings (sometimes musical) will be offered in the departments: internal medicine, oncology and heart disease
The library will remain open until 22h for those who wish to come, borrow. The bibliography will be presented and the books exposed.
