Playing the Inside Out is David Adams Richards distilled insight on the artists struggle for full access to artistic integrity by remaining an outsider to convention. Richards conjures forth his vision of eternal truths commonly held by all mankind, a Miramichi cosmic consciousness that he has been working at all his life. In an entertaining, remonstrating, and ultimately uplifting essay he identifies how conformity and laziness poison artists, and the great pressures that exist for writers to 'join the herd.' No one can possibly read this essay and not find comments or conclusions that directly relate to them. The writers challenge to find and protect ones inner honesty is deeply familiar to anyone seeking to be faithful to the true sense of 'I' that dominates motivation and judgement. So personal are the truths that Richards lays out, that anyone who reads will feel Richards passion and find value in his practical wisdom and encouragement. Playing the Inside Out is shrewd analysis; a personal advisory directed at artists and writers in particular. But Richards topic and manner of address are egalitarian. He is telling us to be who we are honestly, consistently, and with heart.Depuis plus de trente ans, lcrivain David Adams Richards puise dans lexprience de la marginalit de la Miramichi pour approfondir lintrieur de ltre humain, l o de loge le vrai. Dans cet essai, Richards dpeint le rapport de rsistance crative quil entretient avec laltrit stigmatisant qui menace lauthenticit et exprime son apptence daller audel des apparences. Lapproche sociale et existentielle quil adopte dans son parcours littraire et personnel privilgie la rvlation d'un vrai possible, qu'il incarne assurment luimme en tant qucrivain. Tel quil le fait dans son essai et linstar de ses romans, David Adams Richards contredit, dplace et transforme le discours hgmonique pour privilgier le vrai. Lcrivain nous raconte des histoires qui se droulent dans un endroit qui devient seul lieu et tout lieu. Lesthtique du rcit assume lauthenticit que possde une valeur dexpansion permettant daccder des lois plus puissantes. La dmarche de Richards sinscrit humblement dans une tentative de sonder une ralit plus proche de ltre fondamental, voire universelle, audel des apparences.
