The Great Easter: Ambulation
Jacques Besse
A hallucinating, insomniac, and increasingly fragile flaneur wanders the streets of Paris over the long Easter weekend of 1960.
Paris, Easter weekend 1960. The French composer Jacques Besse sets out on a marathon stroll through the city that begins on Good Friday, when he leaves his brothers house on rue de Turbigo, and ends on Easter Monday, when, having declared himself Mars, the god of war, to mystified restaurant-goers, he ambles back toward Saint-Germain-des-Prés. The Great Eastera memoir in the form of a novella, or perhaps a novella in the form of a memoiris the first-person account of a hallucinating, insomniac, and increasingly fragile flaneurs unending ambulation.
The Great Easter was first published in French in 1969 and became famous a few years later when in their milestone work Anti-Oedipus Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari referred to Besses walk as the quintessential double stroll of the schizo. (Besse was a patient at Guattaris psychiatric clinic La Borde.) Besses stroll purées past and present, real and not-real: a rendezvous with a prostitute intersects with Sergei Eisenstein and his entourage, a bellowed song about the sea is overwhelmed by memories of the 1830 July Revolution, and the entire universe gathers itself up into a bubble above Gare dAusterlitz. He is seized by anxiety, released by joy; he announces his cosmic celebrity via a huge (imaginary) television while freezing in the night and calling out for bread. A cult favorite in France, The Great Easter is an engrossing, surreal road movie of a book.
