Jacques Debrot
Jacques is slowly becoming a museum of himself. He has seen lakes, caves, volcanoes, the quiet golden sky of Newark, N.J., planes landing carefully in the middle distance, one after the other, in perfect intervals. He fears being torn apart by predators—dog-muzzled baboons, sea lions— eaten alive, not whole, but in steaming chunks, shreds—even as child, it seemed an appropriate punishment. He is always late to pick up the phone—he lets it ring until the answering machine screens the call. He is never late for appointments—if you saw him beforehand, you’d think he was someone with an hour or two to kill in a strange town, wrapped perhaps only in a wet towel, and staring vacantly out the window of his cheap hotel room. His favorite knickknacks are perfectly arranged before him: the shoebox labelled little shards of broken glass, the tricked-out snow globe, a string of plastic fish, some unfinished letters to an ancient aunt. Try to find him @jacquesdebrot.
