L'auteur de
"Life of Pi" ne semble pas avoir apprécié sa visite récente à Ottawa pour célébrer le cinquantième anniversaire du Conseil des Arts, et plus particulièrement l'importance que Stephen Harper lui attribuait. Quoi de nouveau?
Martel entreprend un projet:
"not to educate—that would be arrogant, less than that—to make suggestions to his stillness". Voir le site ouèbe du projet. Un frament du site:
- Citation :
- The Prime Minister did not speak during our brief tribute, certainly not. I don’t think he even looked up. The snarling business of Question Period having just ended, he was shuffling papers. I tried to bring him close to me with my eyes.
Who is this man? What makes him tick? No doubt he is busy. No doubt he is deluded by that busyness. No doubt being Prime Minister fills his entire consideration and froths his sense of busied importance to the very brim. And no doubt he sounds and governs like one who cares not a jot for the arts.
But he must have moments of stillness.
Stephen Harper recevra donc à toutes les deux semaines un livre de la part de Iann Martel! L'auteur prévoit mettre sur le site les commentaires de Harper sur le projet.
Le Canard lève son chapeau à Iann Martel pour un exemple de beau brassage sur un site ouèbe de l'espace citoyen en préparation des prochaines élections fédérales!!!
