About
"Je ne suis pas cette femme murée dans un trou, je ne suis pas cette femme qui ne sert à rien, je ne suis pas cette femme gentille qui est à l'écoute des autres, je veux me libérer de la prison de vos rêves. Je veux être au monde pour le changer, pour le transformer. Je veux être une présence au monde. Je veux que tu plonges tes mains, encore endoloris par la foi, dans l'amertume putride..."
