Cosmopolis

David Cronenberg from a Don DeLillo novel, 2012


Estranho. Um sonho mal dormido de uma actualidade em que a palavra crise é repetida diáriamente ad nauseum. A queda do Yuan. Ai a depreciação do Rato.  O Ícaro das finanças.

“There’s a rumour it seems involving the finance minister. He’s supposed to resign any time now,” she said. “Some kind of scandal about a misconstrued comment. He made a comment about the economy that may have been misconstrued. The whole country is analysing the grammar and syntax of this comment. Or it wasn't even what he said. It was when he paused. They are trying to construe the meaning of the pause. It could be deeper, even, than grammar. It could be breathing.”
