Claude Simon - Writing the Visible

Klappentext This is a major study of the Nobel prize-winning French novelist Claude Simon. Zusammenfassung This is a major study of the Nobel prize-winning French novelist Claude Simon. Simon is a complex figure: for all that he writes in a distinctively modern fictional tradition (exemplified by Proust! Joyce! Beckett and Robbe-Grillet)! his novels contain strong elements of visual representation alongside a very different king of free-floating! anti-realist writing.
