Quand je te dis

Quand je te dis que je te possède,
je dis que ton existence possède son espace
à l’intérieur de moi.
Je te dis que ton existence à l’extérieur de moi
m’est parvenue
et que te voilà double.
Ton double ne partira pas en mer jeudi.
Si tu ne reviens pas de la mer, toi,
c’est ton double qui va se charger de ton existence,
et pour longtemps.

Wenn ich dir sage

Wenn ich dir sage, dass ich dich besitze,
sag ich, dein Dasein besitzt seinen Raum
innerhalb meiner.
Ich sag dir dein Dasein außerhalb meiner
hat mich erreicht
und nun bist du geteilt.
Dein zweites du sticht Dienstag nicht in See.
Und kehrst du nicht von See zurück,
so nimmt das zweite Du dein Dasein an,
und zwar für lang.

In 1978 Suzanne Jacob published her first novel Flore Cocon and founded, together with others, the publishing house Le Biocreux where she worked as literary director for several years.

Jacob published texts in various magazines such as Liberté and La Gazette des femmes; next to her work as a writer she has also recorded music CDs. In 1992 and 1993 she was writer in residence at the University of Montréal. She has lectured in Québec, the United States, Europe and South America and is a member of the Academy of Arts and Letters of Quebec.

Her novel Laura Laur won the Governor-General’s Award and the Prix Québec-Paris in 1984. In 1997, La bulle d’encre, her essay on reading and writing, won the Prix de la revue Études françaises. In 1998, her collection of poetry La part du feu received the Governor-General’s Award and the Prix de la Société Radio-Canada. In 2007 Suzanne Jacob received the Félix-Antoine-Savard poetry prize for the group of poems entitled 'Ils ont été nombreux à répondre', which appeared in issue #125 of the literary review Estuaire.

Of her work she has said, that from the beginning she has continually tried to use fiction as a way of creating discrepancies, breaks, and uncertainty in the monolithic set of beliefs that surround us, and that without these discrepancies nothing would shake the rigidity of fundamentalism. Through her novels, poetry, short stories and essays, Suzanne Jacob dramatizes the relationship of the individual conscience with the law. She seeks out that space in everyone where we are both victim and torturer, innocent and guilty. Humor, irony, lucidity, revolt and compassion combine their tones to create her unique voice.
