The essay, quoting Sartre, looks at the way Roquetin, the main character of Nausea, looks at a tree: “This root, with all its colour, shape, its congealed movement, was . . . below all explanation. Each of its qualities escaped it a little, flowed out of it, half solidified, almost became a thing; each one was In the way in the root and the whole stump now gave me the impression of unwinding itself a little, denying its existence to lose itself in a frenzied excess.”
It made me think of this…er…breakfast photograph.
