Saga is an extension of the plurality of the means of experimentation used by Jean-François Bory to capture the dynamic inside the text, directly related to the spatialisation of letters theorised by Pierre Garnier. lts corresponding object­ book masterfully resumes the cinematographic dimension in the progression of the writing and uses a visual narration.
