Although it is an irrefutable fact that we all invent ourselves, it is seldom done with the deliberate forethought that Fabio Gerentless gave to his creation. But his first project was to construct an imaginary world in which to set his new character, for although he was at peace in his new environs in New Caledonia, Noumé itself did not satisfy his creative urge. So stone by stone, house by house, street by street, he brought into being the banlieue of Lompleques (it being understood that his use of the term banlieue had specific exotic connotations).
