About the Book

Des réflexions sur des sujets essentiels, notamment la politique – car pendant de longues années, Maurice Henrie a travaillé à l’ombre des parlementaires fédéraux –, des questions d’ordre littéraire et des sujets de nature socioéconomique.  Ici, la plume est au service de la libre pensée, sans censure. Elle aborde une foule de sujets dans des textes regroupés selon leur appartenance et leur orientation. Du côté de la politique, par exemple, Henrie explore l’affinité entre le député et ses électeurs, le régime traditionnel des poids et des contrepoids dans les débats en Chambre, et les vicissitudes qui accompagnent tout gouvernement au pouvoir. Côté littérature, il évoque le mystère des succès littéraires, les malentendus de bon aloi qui dominent la littérature et les misères de l’écrit dans un monde où dominent l’électronique et l’informatique. Découvrez la version livre audio de ce titre, lu en version intégrale par Étienne Panet-Raymond.

About the Author :
Romancier, nouvelliste et essayiste, Maurice Henrie, auteur primé (Prix Trillium, Prix des Lecteurs de Radio-Canada, Prix du livre d’Ottawa), reprend la plume tantôt satirique, tantôt lyrique qu’on lui connaît.

Review :
Je vous invite à lire Le poids du temps, un carnet où Maurice Henrie démontre qu’il est charmant libre penseur, probablement le seul en Ontario français. Maurice Henrie serait-il le Montaigne ou le Pascal de l’Ontario français? Maurice Henrie à n’en pas douter est un fin observateur des mœurs de ses contemporains, comme entre son temps Michel de Montaigne. Il nous livre le fruit de ses méditations dans un petit  opuscule Le poids du temps qui traite de mille choses, allant de sujets aussi diversifiés que la pluie qui tombe sans cesse au Québec, de la facilité des spermatozoïdes à se frayer un chemin, que de notre rapport amour-haine avec les États-Unis. On savoure chaque ligne. Le seul défaut que l’on puisse trouver c’est que c’est beaucoup trop court. On en voudrait cinq cent pages comme ça. Vite au travail cher philosophe pour la suite de vos commentaires éclairés. Mettant en mots diverses observations sur une multitude de sujets, l’auteur dresse un portrait impressionnant de l’influence exercée par le temps sur sa pensée.
