J'ai voulu raconter l'amour tel qu'il est vécu la plupart du temps par la plupart des gens : sans crise ni événement. Au gré de la vie qui passe, des printemps qui reviennent et repartent. Dans la mélancolie des choses. Il est nulle part et partout, il est dans le temps même.Les Moreau vont vivre cinquante ans côte à côte, en compagnie l'un de l'autre. C'est le bon mot : elle est sa compagne, il est son compagnon. Seule la mort les séparera, et encore ce n'est pas sûr.F. B.
