Tuesday's books - Ivan Garcia<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

F\u00e9lix, a mediocre journalist and writer, has just moved in with his partner, B\u00e9atrice Br\u00e9guet, aka Bambi, in their brand-new Parisian apartment. Just when our protagonist thinks he's found the idyllic setting to relaunch his artistic activity, Bambi's desire to become a mother is born... Faced with such an unreasonable request, poor F\u00e9lix will do everything he can to escape the \u00aborder of things\u00bb.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Troisi\u00e8me roman de l\u2019\u00e9crivain Jean-Fran\u00e7ois Pigeat publi\u00e9 aux Editions Le Dilettante, L\u2019ordre des choses<\/em> sonne bien actuel. Tout d\u2019abord, en raison de sa th\u00e9matique centrale qu\u2019est l\u2019angoisse de la paternit\u00e9, le roman ancre sa trame dans un \u00e9v\u00e9nement qu\u2019a priori<\/em> tout homme (presque) m\u00fbr vivra un jour: la d\u00e9cision de procr\u00e9er. Celle-ci s\u2019accompagne de son lot de d\u00e9convenues et m\u00eame de potentielles crises. Le lecteur suit donc les al\u00e9as d\u2019un (anti)h\u00e9ros un peu parano, en qu\u00eate de paix et d\u2019isolement loin des tumultes humains qu\u2019il d\u00e9sire fuir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00abMercedes broyait (la grossesse : temp\u00eate hormonale), de sa crainte de la fausse couche. Elle souffrait de la morri\u00f1a. Elle voulait retourner au pays. Se languissait de sa famille. Que les petits grandissent l\u00e0-bas, voil\u00e0 ce qu\u2019elle voulait.
– Caramba!
– Ouais mon pote, c\u2019est le mot.
– L\u2019enfantement est un fl\u00e9au, estimai-je.\u00bb<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

La paternit\u00e9 prise avec humour<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Avec une plume pleine de l\u00e9g\u00e8ret\u00e9 et d\u2019humour, l\u2019auteur plonge le lecteur dans l\u2019existence de F\u00e9lix, ce personnage dr\u00f4le, attachant et r\u00e2t\u00e9, et qui ne manque pas de l\u2019avouer: \u00abJ\u2019\u00e9tais l\u2019arch\u00e9type du gars d\u00e9cevant\u00bb. Apr\u00e8s un bref succ\u00e8s litt\u00e9raire, notre cher \u00e9crivain se voit condamner \u00e0 r\u00e9diger des articles sur la maroquinerie ou la v\u00e9g\u00e9tation au sein d\u2019une \u00e9quipe plut\u00f4t aust\u00e8re qui n\u2019arrange en rien son quotidien. Entre sa pseudo-romance rat\u00e9e avec Nathalie, la stagiaire du journal qui ne manque pas une occasion d\u2019essayer de le relancer dans le milieu de l\u2019\u00e9criture, sa cheffe, Xavi\u00e8re, qui le rabaisse au possible, sa compagne qui le \u00abpers\u00e9cute\u00bb avec son envie d\u2019avoir un enfant, et la rar\u00e9faction de ses amiti\u00e9s masculines, F\u00e9lix tient le cap tant bien que mal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00abJ\u2019ai dit eh bien \u00e0 pr\u00e9sent que les travaux sont presque termin\u00e9s chez nous, que nous avons chacun notre pi\u00e8ce, j\u2019avais esp\u00e9r\u00e9 \u00eatre tranquille et m\u2019y remettre.
– T\u00e9 r\u00e9mettre \u00e0 quoi?
– Tu sais bien.
– F\u00e9lix, touyours tu dis \u00e7a et yamais tou l\u00e9 fais\u2026\u00bb<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n


M\u00eame s\u2019il d\u00e9sire \u00eatre seul, F\u00e9lix reste tout de m\u00eame bien entour\u00e9, notamment par son comparse Z\u00e9bulon, son ami Sylvain, accompagn\u00e9 de sa fille Aurore et sa femme Mercedes qui \u2013 comme vous l\u2019avez remarqu\u00e9 ci-dessus \u2013 ne perdra pas une occasion de ratatiner \u00e0 coup d\u2019accents hispaniques les projets rocambolesques de notre h\u00e9ros. Et d\u2019ailleurs, au cours de ses visites et fr\u00e9quents exils bucoliques, le protagoniste ne manquera pas de croiser Sabine, la belle voisine de Z\u00e9bulon mari\u00e9e \u00e0 un homme d\u2019affaires, et de se livrer tout entier \u00e0 \u00abl\u2019ordre des choses\u00bb avec elle, alors que pourtant il d\u00e9teste cette expression\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pr\u00e9cis\u00e9ment, prenons le temps d\u2019exposer une autre raison qui rend cet ouvrage d\u00e9licieusement contemporain: son humour. Ironie cinglante, comique de situation, parodie, situations invraisemblables, et la liste reste bien longue encore sur les proc\u00e9d\u00e9s dont fait usage l\u2019auteur pour faire passer aux lecteurs un agr\u00e9able moment en compagnie de ses personnages.  D\u2019ailleurs, \u00e0 cela s\u2019ajoute \u2013 entre autres \u2013 la mani\u00e8re qu\u2019a l\u2019\u00e9crivain d\u2019aborder la narration qui semble somme toute un peu d\u00e9routante puisque, comme nous pouvons le constater ci-apr\u00e8s, le lecteur peine parfois \u00e0 savoir s\u2019il s\u2019agit des paroles du narrateur, de F\u00e9lix ou m\u00eame d\u2019un m\u00e9lange des deux qui serait rendu \u00abvisible\u00bb aux autres personnages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00abOn comprend que Mercedes trouv\u00e2t l\u00e9gitime l\u2019extravagant d\u00e9sir procr\u00e9atif de Bambi.
– Porqu\u00e9 \u00abextravagant\u00bb?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Elle ne voyait pas ce qu\u2019il y avait de d\u00e9raisonnable \u00e0 vouloir un enfant \u00e0 vingt-huit ans ; y\u00e9tais oun \u00e9go\u00efste\u2026\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Une belle parodie de Houellebecq<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

En m\u00ealant dans le corps du texte dialogues et narration, l\u2019auteur nous donne le sentiment que Mercedes et les autres personnages ont acc\u00e8s aux pens\u00e9es de F\u00e9lix, ce qui ajoute bien des effets comiques \u00e0 l\u2019histoire. Si Jean-Fran\u00e7ois Pigeat n\u2019avait pas choisi d\u2019orienter volontairement son roman sous le joug comique, ce dernier aurait pu donner un Houellebecq. Quoique cach\u00e9 mais bel et bien pr\u00e9sent, le th\u00e8me de la st\u00e9rilit\u00e9 masculine \u2013 de plus en plus m\u00e9diatis\u00e9 au sein de nos soci\u00e9t\u00e9s \u2013 \u00e9claire le roman \u00e7\u00e0 et l\u00e0 en soulignant notamment les probl\u00e8mes sexuels de Z\u00e9bulon et la st\u00e9rilit\u00e9 du mari de Sabine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

D\u2019une certaine fa\u00e7on, ironiquement, F\u00e9lix \u2013 qui ne voulait pas d\u2019enfant \u2013 s\u2019est fait \u00abvampiriser\u00bb sa semence par Sabine qui, bien contente d\u2019\u00eatre enceinte, finit par l\u2019abandonner pour retourner aupr\u00e8s de son riche mari. Ce qui n\u2019est pas sans lien avec quelque th\u00e9matique que d\u00e9montre Michel Houellebecq sur la libert\u00e9 sexuelle dans ses romans tels que Extension du domaine de la lutte<\/em> or Les particules \u00e9l\u00e9mentaires<\/em>. Alors que certains go\u00fbtent \u00e0 la paternit\u00e9, les autres restent souvent sur la touche, sont st\u00e9riles ou se voient contraints d\u2019\u00e9lever la prog\u00e9niture d\u2019un autre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mais, pour en revenir \u00e0 nos moutons, le roman de Jean-Fran\u00e7ois Pigeat s\u2019\u00e9loigne du style houellebecquien en choisissant de rester sur le mode comique et ironique plut\u00f4t que de sombrer dans la m\u00e9lancolie et le cynisme existentiel. L\u2019ordre des choses <\/em>aurait pu donner un Houellebecq, mais de ne pas l\u2019avoir fait, on ne va pas l\u2019en bl\u00e2mer. On en redemande m\u00eame.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00ab Cette histoire d\u2019enfant\u2026
– Pas tout de suite, a-t-elle confirm\u00e9, mais un jour. C\u2019\u00e9tait dans l\u2019ordre des choses\u2026
– Oh arr\u00eate avec cette expression! Ce n\u2019est pas un argument! On n\u2019est pas oblig\u00e9 de se soumettre \u00e0 l\u2019ordre des choses<\/em>!
– On n\u2019\u00e9tait pas tenus par je ne sais quel d\u00e9cret naturel de r\u00e9pandre ses g\u00e8nes aux quatre vents \u00e0 l\u2019imitation de la semeuse des dictionnaires Larousse.\u00bb<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
