From the back of the book :
Rien n'est vraiTout est possible,Tout est permisWilliam S. Burroughs
"Je dis qu'il n'est pas illogique de penser que le monde est infini.Le juger limité, c'est postuler qu'en quelque endroit reculé les couloirs,les escaliers, les hexagones peuvent disparaître -ce qui est inconcevable, absurde. L'imaginer sans limite, c'est oublier que n'est point sans limite le nombre de livres possibles"J-L Borgès, la bibliothèque de Babel
