Abstract
A writer is first and foremost a reader: tracing his or her reading path enables us to understand his or her intimate relationship with the stories and voices of others, and their role in the construction of his or her own writing. Tanguy Viel poetically reconstructs the reader's posture, from the enchantment a child seeks through projection reading to the awakening of the adult, whose reading doubles as the book's creation of the world.
When the desire arises to create his own fictions, the search for brothers and sisters in his library is an impetus: models enabling him to find, by gradual touches and sedimentations, his own trajectory. These personal affinities depend on the proximity of the universe created, but above all on the voice heard in the work, the treatment of language and enunciation, both in its musical and rhythmic dimensions, and as the embodiment of an ethos, the mirror of a worldview.
