The book is conceived as an investigation—or rather, a quest that is indefinable at first glance. As one immerses oneself in this dark and somber world, the initial impression is one of a sudden loss of bearings. It is by creating this empty, timeless setting that the author draws the reader into an unknown “Distant Place.”
Progress is slow and uncertain, but the empty space is gradually transforming into a path marked by coded landmarks that Jean-Michel Fauquet places with precision and meticulous care. Arranged in the dim light, these indeterminate objects—made of a clearly artificial material—seem to exist in an inaccessible space and exude the scent of oblivion; fantastical figures wander through these pages.
