The hut where the author lived when in Kobro...

Each structure is rectangular and whitewashed (a luxury considering that the next village did not give a damn), there is a bed, a sink, a table and a chair. Totally naked, a single candle gives hope to an otherwise ancient dwelling. Everything was made in a rush, to wobble and to break unexpectedly. A great reign of makeshift resourcefulness in the middle of nowhere. It all degrades over time and as the first tourist enters his house, he receives a bump on the head from a curtain rod.

About the author

Throughout his life, Alain Dizerens has also worked in kabbutz (Israel) and Hong Kong among other places around the world. After a Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy and several decades of teaching, Alain Dizerens also presented a variety of "crosstalk kinetic" (dance, electro) performances in Geneva in 1986. He has written other books - Miroir-Temps and l'Arpenteur sidéral among many as well as published a number of photo e-books. Written with a poetic touch, his books quickly absorb the reader in a realistically magical universe, which at the same time never lacks a bit humour.
