  3. The Story Of The Servant Zerline


A servant, so: back arched, hair tied in a damn hands reddened by the work, withered breasts, heavy legs.

There thirty years, she was beautiful, "everything closes at me, and my breasts stood everyone would feel them." There thirty years, she has been the incongruous passion, ephemeral and outrageous and all the rhetoric gestures of love and hatred that accompanies this consuming passion she shared with the aristocratic ten days during the hunting lodge.

Today it is here, in the dampness of a summer to tell the young man to afternoon to warn him, to tell him this memorable hand that forged its entire existence. It is there, looking down into the gloom of the bush once sacked by the desire to bring the deprivation of life, injury of indifference, the daily toil. She is jealous of the other, other, to confess his villainy, intercepted letters, appointments torn and his lies.

She stare at it chews, it redials. It lays down the romance of his life, without making too much noise.

The beautiful text of Hermann Broch Jacqueline Bir lived for many years. We had it and I brought to the stage in 2004, promising to resume. The opportunity given to us ten years later at the Théâtre de la Place des Martyrs.
