Inaccessible depuis le 6 janvier pour des travaux d’entretien et de maintenance d’envergure, comme la législation en vigueur le prévoit en Wallonie pour ce type d’infrastructures, les bassins de la piscine de Jonfosse à Liège viennent de rouvrir ce 17 février. « Ainsi, on y a notamment procédé à la vidange des bassins, au contrôle de l’étanchéité, au nettoyage complet des différents…

A brief, but illuminating, talk by Jon Fosse on his work. It all comes back to silence.
#JonFosse #ASilentLanguage #FitzcarraldoEditions #Silence #NobelPrizeForLiterature
“Silence isn’t nothing. Silence is everything that words cannot express, everything that remains when words fall away.”

“In silence, I hear the eternal. Not the absence of sound, but the presence of what cannot be named.
Det blei 186 bøker i 2024, opp frå 1 i 2023!
Eg las mest av #JonFosse, #AliceOseman, og #SolvejBalle. Det er nok mine tri favorittar frå året òg.
Favorittboka var nok #Septologien, med «Om udregning af rumfang» (1-5) på ein sterk andreplass.
I underkant av 60% av det eg las var på norsk.
Eg las faktisk kvar einaste dag i 2024, om det så berre var 1 side.
Eg gler meg til eit nytt år med lesing! Eg håpar 2025 blir 4. året på rad eg gjev ut bok.
For 2024 hadde eg to mål.
1. Lese #Septologien av #JonFosse
2. Bli flink på notelesing og pianospeling
Eg endte opp med å lese nesten alt av Jon Fosse i løpet av året, pluss 160~ andre titlar.
Men piano forsvant hen. Eg kan enda det eg kunne i januar (og litt til), men ikkje mykje meir.
No lurar eg på kva slags mål eg skal sette meg for neste år. Trur eg skal ha handfaste mål slik som "les Septologien", mål som er enklare å avgjerde om eg har gjennomført eller ei.
Para celebrar el solsticio de invierno y desearos Felices Fiestas volvemos a compartir nuestra lectura de una novela singular, altamente inspiradora, “Septología”, del Nobel noruego #JonFosse , que tan bien refleja el espíritu de esta época del año.
Etter å ha lest eit tosifra antall teaterstykkar av #JonFosse og alle hans romanar (unntatt ein) så fekk eg i dag sett mitt fyrste Jon Fosse-stykke på teater. «Eg er vinden.»
Fytti så bra! Jon Fosse skal sjåast, ikkje lesast! No må eg byrja å oppsøke desse stykka. Bra me allereie har billettar til eit i februar, og opera i mars.
Exceptional performances highlight a magical evening with a magical play

A Dream Cast Delivers a Dreamy Dream of Autumn by Jon Fosse
Fantastic! That’s the first, but not the last compliment I’ll issue to the remarkable cast of our staged reading of Jon Fosse’s play Dream of Autumn last night. Matt Keely, Thomasin Savaiano, Gabrielle Brite, Amy Stricker, and Kevin Grubb were each, and as an ensemble, gloriously fantastic. They deserve all the praise that came flying their way after the reading. Producers should hire them.
Dream of Autumn was presented as a part of this year’s International Voices Project festival. Each piece is given a one-night only reading after a limited rehearsal period (more on that later).
For those unfamiliar, the actors read from their scripts, but are expected to bring full life to the text. This group sure did. Dream is a tricky play, dwelling in the realm of magical realism, with time shifts, and in this story character shifts, that can turn on the edge of dime. In a full production there would be production elements to help the audience follow those shifts. In this very barebones reading style, with the actors sitting in chairs and reading from their scripts from behind music stands, those shifts were handled via the reading of stage directions and the acting choices made by each member of the cast. According to the audience during our post-performance talk back, every one followed each twist and turn.
We only had about six hours of rehearsal to prepare, and the cast took the direction that was given and ran with it, culminating in a very “in the moment” experience for themselves as well as the audience. This was the first time this cast had read the play start to finish, together, without stopping. It was also the first time I had heard it. You could feel the entire room caught in the moments of the play and the moments of performance, breathing as one.
Having directed a number of these staged readings I’ve seen similar quite a few times, but rarely as well and as thrilling as last night’s effort. I often maintain that one of the true tests of an actor’s mettle is watching them carry the day with little preparation, trusting their skill and instincts. This team certainly carried this play last night further than most.
My hat’s off to each of them. Job exceptionally well done.

Next Up: Dream of Autumn by Jon Fosse
Monday night, November 18 at the International Voices Project we unveil a staged reading of Jon Fosse’s Dream of Autumn. Fosse won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2023 for his work.
Dream of Autumn was translated into English by Sarah Cameron Sunde. The piece features quite a tension filled family reunion gathering at a cemetery. That’s actually a mild description of this piece the takes some twists and turns with time along with a dip into the wild world of magical realism. I doubt you’ll ever look at a gravestone the same way again.
The staged reading is free, and The International Voices Project is an organization I’ve worked with for years and certainly one that deserves support for bringing voices from other countries to Chicago.
Come check us out.

Ho trulova kallar denne langhelga for «bokferie». I går lærde me om #JonFosse av #LindaEide, i dag les eg bøkar med ein kopp kaffi i stova og tåke ut vindauget, og i morgon skal me sjå bokføredrag heile dagen på #bLEST litteraturfestival.
Ny tradisjon?
Denne helga er eg på litteraturfestivalen #bLEST på Tysvær! Endeleg skal eg få lærd litt om #JonFosse av #LindaEide.
Eg manglar jo enda å lese ein av romanane hans, så eg er litt grøn. 🤔
I ended up with quite a few books read this October! The numbers are quite high since I read a bunch of poetry books which are short and fast to read.
Favourite books from October:
"Ducks: Two Years in the Oil Sands" by #KateBeaton;
"Selma gjør så godt hun kan" by Kjersti Synneva Moen;
"Stein til stein" by #JonFosse;
"White" by #HanKang,
"Ich werde etwas mit der Sprache machen" by #NoraGomringer.
