An amateur read-aloud group invites you to immerse yourself in Souviens-toi de ne pas mourir sans avoir aimé, a novel by Marc Alexandre Oho Bambe, the Cameroonian poet and slammer known as Capitaine Alexandre.
This moving tale follows Jamil, a jazz musician who, on discovering audio cassettes containing the voice of his father whom he never knew, embarks on an intimate and poetic journey through his history and that of his own fatherhood. Conceived as a jazz recital, this explosive novel blurs the boundaries between poetry and prose, memory and melody.
The reading of excerpts will be accompanied by musical interludes on tenor saxophone, performed by Pascal Lissot, offering an immersive experience where words and music respond to each other. A timeless moment to explore love, transmission and the power of language.
