Marked sharply by its time and place (Paris in the 1970s), this early theological text by Jean-Luc Marion nevertheless maintains a strikingly deep resonance with his most recent, groundbreaking, and ever more widely discussed phenomenology. And while Marion will want to insist on a clear distinction between the theological and phenomenological projects, to read each in light of the other can prove illuminating for both the theological and the philosophical reader - and perhaps above all for the reader who wants to read in both directions at once, the reader concerned with those points of interplay and undecidability where theology and philosophy inform, provoke, and challenge one another in endlessly complex ways." "In both his theological and his phenomenological projects Marion's central effort to free the absolute or unconditional (be it theology's God or phenomenology's phenomenon) from the various limits and preconditions of human thought and language will imply a thoroughgoing critique of all metaphysics, and above all of the modern metaphysics centered on the active, spontaneous subject who occupies modern philosophy from Descartes through Hegel and Nietzsche.

On a tous une façon de se cacher. Certains s'isolent, d'autres se jettent dans les bras du premier venu. Depuis la mort de son compagnon, Caleb Maguire mène une vie paisible dans les montagnes australiennes avec sa chienne et ses chevaux pour toute compagnie. Les jours passent et se ressemblent.... jusqu'au jour où une tempête de neige s'abat sur la montagne et où Caleb doit secourir un touriste perdu. Avec la neige arrive une âme en peine qui va obliger Caleb à remettre en question sa vie solitaire. Paul Turner est barman à Carlton, le quartier branché de Melbourne. Il vit la vie au jour le jour ; mais cette vie sans attache s'apprête à prendre fin. En trois jours, Paul tombe amoureux de Caleb. Il revient en ville en lui promettant qu'il va reprendre sa vie en main... mais seulement quand toutes les routes seront dégagées.
