As with Rilke's Ghost, these pages are those of an ailing Fargue who, confined to his home, trades his walks on Rue de l'Odéon or Brasserie Lipp for wanderings through time and memories. From 1943 until his death, he drew on his immense memory to invoke friendly figures. Rich in portraits and anecdotes, this volume offers a new perspective on Maurice Ravel's major and profoundly original work, the perspective of Fargue, a music lover and inspiration, a brilliant conversationalist, kind and accommodating, who nevertheless does not compromise when it comes to art.
