Carnet de l'âme and chronicle of current events, here is the powerful and impetuous, especially prophetic, logbook that Véronique Lévy kept from the summer of 2016 to the fall of 2018. The fervour of prayer illuminates the tragedies and conflicts ravaging the world. The convocation of the Gospel and the saints reveals the horrors of contemporary nihilism. The face of Christ covers the abyss of a humanity surrendered to the masters of robotics, the wizards of genetics and the idolaters of the new Babel.
But this decoding without taboos and without concessions, where aphorism alternates with commentary, is also an embodied test of compassion. A paradox of living faith, it is in complete freedom that Véronique Lévy enters into dialogue with the Femen, rappers or jihadists, questioning the ultimate meaning of their provocations or abuses.
Are we condemned to the narcissism of a self-destruction that will kill love? Didn't the God who became flesh visit the underworld? Is the eclipse we are going through definitive? Revealing the hidden signs of transcendence, awakening the hope of authentic deliverance, Véronique Lévy is part of the tradition of Catholic literature carried by a Bloy, a Claudel, a Bernanos, a Mauriac.
A work of worship and combat. A treatise on mystical revolution.
Writer, Véronique Lévy published, at Le Cerf, Show me your face and Adoration, which met a wide audience and distinguished her as one of the original and strong voices of today.
