Description
Ainsi donc, aucun de nous deux n'est en vie au moment où le lecteur ouvre ce livre. Mais tant que le sang continue de battre dans cette main qui tient la plume, tu appartiens autant que moi à la bienheureuse matière, et je puis encore t'interpeller d'ici jusqu'en Alaska. Sois fidèle à ton Dick. Ne laisse aucun autre type te toucher. N'adresse pas la parole aux inconnus. J'espère que tu aimeras ton bébé. J'espère que ce sera un garçon. J'espère que ton mari d'opérette te traitera toujours bien, parce que autrement mon spectre viendra s'en prendre à lui, comme une fumée noire, comme un colosse dément, pour le déchiqueter jusqu'au moindre nerf. Et ne prends pas C.Q. en pitié. Il fallait choisir entre lui et H.H., et il était indispensable que H.H. survive au moins quelques mois de plus pour te faire vivre à jamais dans l'esprit des générations futures. Je pense aux aurochs et aux anges, au secret des pigments immuables, aux sonnets prophétiques, au refuge de l'art. Telle est la seule immortalité que toi et moi puissions partager, ma Lolita.
