Story3
Quand j'étais enfant, ma mère ne cessait de me répéter : "Arrête avec tes mensonges." J'inventais si bien les histoires, paraît-il, qu'elle ne savait plus démêler le vrai du faux. J'ai fini par en faire un métier, je suis devenu romancier. Aujourd'hui, voilà que j'obéis enfin à ma mère : je dis la vérité. Pour la première fois. Dans ce livre. Autant prévenir d'emblée : pas de règlement de comptes, pas de violence, pas de névrose familiale.

En cette année 1916 où la guerre dévore chaque jour sa ration de chair humaine, les survivants n'ont d'autres ressources que d'offrir leur corps en sursis à la douceur du désir et à la violence des étreintes. Vincent, le narrateur, est un très jeune homme particulièrement beau et intelligent. Il découvre la passion dans les bras d'Arthur, un jeune soldat qui tente d'échapper pour quelques jours à l'horreur des tranchées ; et dans le même moment, il noue une amitié amoureuse avec Marcel Proust que la séduction de cet adolescent trouble.

Vingt-cinq ans après En l'absence des hommes, son premier roman, Philippe Besson explore les années qui ont précédé l'acte fondateur d'écrire. Bien plus qu'une introspection, La Première Phrase du premier livre est une autobiographie collective, où le récit d'une vocation littéraire se mêle à l'évocation de toute une époque. Dans la vie de chaque écrivain, il existe un avant et un après le premier livre.

Ils se sont aimés, à l'âge des possibles, puis quittés, sans réelle explication. Dix-huit ans plus tard, ils se croisent, presque par hasard, à Montréal. Qui sont-ils devenus ? Qu'ont-ils fait de leur jeunesse et de leurs promesses ? Sont-ils heureux, aujourd'hui, avec la personne qui partage désormais leur vie ? Le temps d'un dîner de retrouvailles - à quatre - chaque mot, chaque regard, chaque geste est scruté, pesé, interprété. Tout remonte à la surface : les non-dits, les regrets, la course du temps, mais aussi l'espérance et les fantômes du désir.

Cette année-là, j'avais vingt-deux ans et j'allais, au même moment, rencontrer l'insaisissable Paul Darrigrand et flirter dangereusement avec la mort, sans que ces deux événements aient de rapport entre eux. D'un côté, le plaisir et l'insouciance ; de l'autre, la souffrance et l'inquiétude. Le corps qui exulte et le corps meurtri. Aujourd'hui, je me demande si, au fond, tout n'était pas lié. Après "Arrête avec tes mensonges", Philippe Besson poursuit son dialogue avec les fantômes de sa jeunesse et approfondit son souci d'exprimer sa vérité intime.
