Description

This second edition of Patrick Modiano: Modern French Writers provides a comprehensive study of the Nobel Prize winning author. Building upon Kawakami's acclaimed A Self-Conscious Art, this updated volume includes two new chapters that examine Modiano's recent literary contributions and his Nobel Prize win. Kawakami explores how Modiano utilizes parody of precursors like Proust and the nouveau romanciers to shape his narratives. The text examines how his writing addresses the limitations of memory and the difficulty of retrieving the past through prose. Through a study of his discreetly playful style, readers gain a deeper understanding of how Modiano navigates the relationship between writing and history.
