C'était un Marseillais qui ne parlait que de la Canebière, du cabanon, d'Olive, de Marius, de pêche à la rascasse. On l'aurait lassé faire, il eût entremêlé L'Internationale de galéjades.
Le jour où j’ai emménagé dans le cabanon, il neigeait. Un souffle froid s’échappait du congélateur. Il y avait des toiles d’araignée sur le toit, de la poussière partout, des feuilles et de la boue par terre. Comment allais-je le transformer en un espace vivable où écrire en hiver ?
