It is dark, large stones lie scattered on the fresh asphalt. Next to the new lane that is being built here, a highway stretches into the infinite black of night. The air smells of summer and instead of noisy hustle and bustle, there is only timeless silence.

Letter from Imprisoned Anarchist Comrade Carla

Salut!

After 536 days on the run, I was arrested on July 26th near Saint-Etienne. I experienced the arrest as the first performance of a scene repeated a thousand times in my head, or rather 536 times? Everything seemed to happen in slow motion: the hooded cops pointing their rifles at me, put me down and ask me the name that I’ve so often been called lately. It felt strange to pronounce it.
