Nicolas Bouvier is very often summarized under the label of travel writer. And it is this facet that we expect to find in “Nicolas Bouvier. According to geographies”, freshly published by Paulsen editions. There will of course be a question of journeys, since the author Alexandre Chollier is a geographer. But this great reader of Bouvier, who has spent a lot of time in the writer’s archives at the Geneva Library over the past fifteen years, wanted to explore various geographies of the character. “I thought of this book as a succession of cards, of moments. That authorized me to leave blanks”, he remarks on the telephone.
