What would the odds be against a sheet of paper – until a moment ago, a letter cherished in its envelope, folded in four – casually thrown over one’s shoulder after answering its contents, in such a manner that, when I turned around to check the address written on it, that same leaf of paper is left standing on the carpet, like a kind of little Gehry-wall?
A letter standing as a house – which is exactly what I wrote to its author, my son, about its contents. Word, now by a miracle taken quite literally.
About the suicide of the Dutch author Zwagerman I had already read the news elsewhere. Of my aversion to both this writer and our conductor Bernhard Haitink my son knew already. Now he wrote to me this postscript. Hidden away in sweet, deep and distant France, I was still ignorant of the second titbit of news -:
“Joost Zwagerman has been returned to the National Orchestra and Bernard Haitink in his depression committed suicide – or was it the other way round…”
Gorgeous son!
