Roman mystique, mystiques romanesques

About this book

The French novel of the past century is crossed by impulses that draw on the sources of mysticism while distending its contours. Their expression reflects the contemporary inflections of the quest for meaning, the gaze that literature bears on its own powers and its clash with the limits of language.--Gallimard.
