Michèle Causse, a writer to read « In order to contradict her epitaph “Neither read, nor approved of” »

Michèle Causse systematically demanded recognition of her position as a radical lesbian. For her, a lesbian is « inaccessible, untouchable, inalienable, inappropriable... ». « A lesbian can't be a fiction, but a utopian and therefore political reality (.). Existing, for her, can not be imitation, because she alone must, (.) give birth to herself. ». (L'interloquée, Les oubliées de l'oubli, Dégénérée, Editions Trois, Québec, p. 51 and 60).

Suzette Robichon, editor of the revue Vlasta, revue des fictions et utopies amazoniennes (1983-1985) co-founded with Michèle Causse and Sylvie Bompis, will introduce Michèle's journey as a writer, translator and nomad.

Françoise Leclère author of IlliZible !, in which she provided keys for reading Michèle Causse's three novels: L'encontre, (               ) et Voyages de la Grande Naine en Androssie, will present Michèle’s books. « What I like best about it is its form, like a dialogue with the author. »
