The principle of the anthology by definition is both frustrating (it still lacks an author that comes to mind and that is believed to have had its place) and exciting (at the discretion of the pages, we find authors that we knew little or nothing, which eventually makes you want to go deeper, to see more detail its production). On this point, we can say that "Writers hikers" fulfills the contract: the pavement of nearly 1,000 pages full of small treasures that cover reading about all the times (to put it quickly: from Dante to Guy Debord , passing by Colette, Proust, Nietzsche and Rousseau, all the feathers - almost - are there). In that, this anthology offers so much space as time travel, and that's probably his greatest quality (and wealth). Introductions of Antoine De Baeque are simple, short, very factual ... in short: they are perfectly their job introduction, invitation to reading. Of course, this book is not really to read in one sitting. Take the rather as a life companion, travel, where we just draw, draw arbitrary pecking occasionally text, random pages, according to his mood of the moment, whenever the mood you takes to the space of a moment, a brief and lovely trip. All these texts, regardless of their intrinsic quality, are so many invitations to travel ... so treat yourself and feel free to borrow the paths of literature, these paths of poetry.
