Publisher's Synopsis
Jean-Marie Gustave Le Clézio proposes a perception of reality and of what lies beyond it. The rational, the irrational and the transrational are fundamentally linked to this author's writing. His writing is a philosophy of existence, with all its certainties and uncertainties. Jean-Marie Gustave Le Clézio's writing is marked by reflection and perpetual questioning. One might even say that it is writing at the frontiers of human thought in its relationship to knowledge and truth. The questions that pile up in Leclézio's novels bear witness to a kind of repeated anxiety that runs through the stories and the characters.
