White torture
Jail, I don't know if it's ever stopped, but it's as fashionable as a trend almost every year. If we look at the Basque literature, it is from the beginning that Etxepare himself entered Bearn. The case of Sarrionandia, of course, not even the most paradigmatic. And there's a thesis there, that is, that links Basque literature to jail. But the worst thing about prison is loneliness.
Those who have passed claim that loneliness, isolation, albeit involuntarily, as a cold sweat, is the terminology that has stuck on our skin. We do not seek loneliness, we do not desire it, to which we love so much the soloists of the factory. It is not a duty, but a duty, a duty for authority. He was recognized by Filipe Bidart, a member of the IK armed group, in French jails, where he died by eta.
And he recounted it in a booklet, he summed up in solitude those over the age of two (“where legally you cannot retain more than three months”). In the solitude of two years, read, it does not give much, perhaps twenty-three of the twenty-four hours in the cell, a morning and afternoon walk – half an hour – the denunciation of the single, not particularly appalling, human treatment officials. The white torment is therefore insensitive to everything else. Words don't convey, they can't, what the one who's alone feels. But believe me, as you read the book, you can feel, when you close the door, the Klanka, that stays alone, the drowning of what cannot come out, the lack of the first days. Then you will gradually go to the skeptics, to the new forms of time, even if anxiety does not completely abandon you. You don't know how quiet you feel, most likely, you can buy a small radio!
Therefore, the sad testimony of the loneliness, of those of us who hope that they will never get us into the hole (to know how things are), that the loneliness, not the sought, not the desired, but the need, which will serve us to know what it is, if they ever get us into the hole (the judge, guards it). ), which we could also use as a guide, as a kit of survival, but which, above all, in the most unfavorable situation, shows us that there is a margin of resistance, of dignity, of humor.
“The human being is not conceived to live alone.” The soloists of the factory will also end the reading by changing faith.
