From which we stand

"Writing and publishing-in the mind of Christophe Lamiot Enos, they spring from the same need. From Which We Stand speaks of the one and the other in a text that enlightens by outlining the obscure, the resource formed by texts, whether one writes or conveys them. This activity as a whole is a form of exposition, a surge we are invited to experience. Christophe's poetry operates within time : he takes it over at his own risk and takes a further risk, that of opening a book of happenings, of other people's writings" (Caroline Andriot-Saillant).

The author says what poetry writing and editing mean to him, based on his recent work on the To series that he created in 2014 at PURH. This second manifesto is organized around five entries or chapters, each of which dedicated to an aspect of what constitutes an anthropological phenomenon meant to forward essential values toward a better life.
