Kirkegaard on the Dart

Frenchitude: a portrait (part deux)

This is Philippe on the train.
P: What are you reading?
R_E: This (the Crow Road. Iain Banks)
P: Is it any good? Is it a thriller? A detective story? Fiction?
R_E: it's fiction. It's hard to describe. There isn't much happening in it. But it is good. It is about life.
P: the meaning of life, right?
R_E: yes, a meaning of life. One of them. What's... what's your meaning of life?
P: euuuuuuh, non, bof... I have a switch, there [points at his head]. I switch off.
