French author Frédéric Beigbeder has commented on Blanche Léridon’s essay, “Nos inachèvements” (Our Inachievements), praising its celebration of incompletion. Beigbeder’s commentary subtly jokes that publishing a book about procrastination is ironically not a demanding task. The essay itself focuses on the virtues of leaving things unfinished. The remark suggests a self-aware irony within the literary world concerning productivity and the pressures of completion. This commentary appears within a chronicle-style piece, offering a brief, insightful take on Léridon’s work. The text highlights a playful acknowledgement of the inherent contradictions in writing about, and simultaneously embodying, procrastination.
