The figure and thought of Ludwig Wittgenstein are the pivots of this book, which mixes anecdotes, impressions, allegorical illustrations and imagined conversations with the Viennese philosopher. Jean Frémon, however, broadens the questioning of the truth and the usefulness of the language developed by Wittgenstein by bringing in other characters, fictional or real, such as Mikhail Bulgakov, Georg Groddeck, Bertrand Russell. But from this abstruse philosophy and science, the author retains only the poetic essence and grace.
