Jean-Michel Delacomptée: "Green mayors, revolutionaries armed with an eraser"

2020-09-21T17:05:11.004Z


TRIBUNE - The spectacular announcements of the new Green mayors reflect their singular conception of the pure and the impure, explains the novelist, essayist and scholar.


Jean-Michel Delacomptée has notably published

Notre langue française

(Fayard, 2018), the Hervé-Deluen Grand Prize of the Académie française.

He is also the author of remarkable literary portraits, in particular of Montaigne, La Boétie, Racine, Bossuet and Saint-Simon, often published in the prestigious collection “L'Un et l'Autre” by J.-B. Pontalis at Gallimard.

His latest work,

La Bruyère, portrait de nous soi

(Robert Laffont, 2019), has received critical acclaim.

We rarely notice that the Greens, who, helped by a massive abstention, have won some large metropolises, do not give much importance to their dress.

Generally they spare themselves the wearing of the tie, cultivate neither the chic nor the fashion, appear in modest dresses, pants without folds, polo shirts or crumpled shirts.

They do not seek to enhance their presence with refined make-up, glasses with scale frames, a neat haircut.

They do not seek to make people, but to make young.
