Abstract

This article attempts to reconstruct the image of the model reader postulated in the writing of Togolese novelist Sami Tchak. To do this, he relies on the poetic of novel and sociology of reading in order to examine the aesthetic of creation in the novelist and to establish the appropriate conditions for reception of this works. The analysis of the romantic plots shows a tight focus around a nightmarish universe dominates by decay and voluptuousness, without totems or taboos, where the characters are neither angels nor beasts, but simply ready to corrupts themselves in order to be happy. It highlights the power of the authors view of the world, that is to say his assumed subjectivity, which he honed from his childhood in his fathers forge, then in middle age at during his incessant travels to the four corners of the world. Thus, the model reader of Sami Tchak must above all allow himself to never shy away from taboos of any kind. He must be ready to wander the cities, to meet myriads of endearing and, very often, eccentric characters wandering sometimes in the upscale neighborhoods, sometimes in the disreputable slums of the suburbs of the world. Because, ultimately, Sami Tchaks texts are strongly colored by didacticism, freedom of thought and spirit. They demonstrate a real intention to share knowledge of an encyclopedic nature to make readers more competent than they are.
