Yet despite the popularity and critical recognition of his work, Quignard remains a discreet and fleeting presence in the current cultural landscape, sharing with other contemporary French writers the belief that literature is a form of self-effacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this first critical study in English, L a Vuong offers a comprehensive survey of Quignard's still growing oeuvre by examining his specific attempts to produce disappearance through -- and for -- writing. His texts and collaborations appear as vanishing acts where the writer, like the figure on the Tomb of the Diver found in Paestum, remains suspended between presence and absence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lea Vuong\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1781883335\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781781883334\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Legenda\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/28\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.48lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.27d","brand":"Lea Vuong","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43937990541567,"sku":"9781781883334","price":13.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_c301cb74-0dbb-4839-b4c9-797e7f16df51.jpg?v=1681433100","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/pascal-quignard-lea-vuong-9781781883334","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
