The Ellena workshop opens this first chapter with a return to Jean-Claude Ellena's childhood in which he relates the birth of a troubling desire. An instinctive, stammering emotion, narrated by the association of White Musk and Jasmine.
Intensity: strong
“I have a strong attachment to jasmine that comes from my childhood. In the mornings, during the summer holidays, I accompanied my grandmother who went to “pick the flower,” an expression that referred to jasmine. These were terraced gardens where the men were absent. The women picked, chatted, laughed, and seemed to enjoy being together while their children ran around. The youngest picked with bare arms. Their skin, golden from the caress of the sun, seemed soft to me, drops of sweat beaded from their faces to the openings of their white blouses, which revealed the roundness of their breasts as they bent over the bushes laden with flowers. On the ground, the baskets were filling up. I didn’t dare look at them, or only distractedly. The musk of their sweat and the narcotic flower of jasmine mingled and troubled me.”
