Titre: Trio Condition: Neuf EAN: 9781564784087 ISBN: 9781564784087 Publisher: Dalkey Archive Press Format: Poche Date de publication: 2006-01-12 Item Height: 203 Item Length: 153.00 Poids: 340g Auteur: Robert Pinget Traducteur: Barbara Wright Contributeur: Barbara Wright (Translated by), Professor John Updike (Introduction by) Sujet: Anglais Description: Trio marks the first time these three shorter Pinget works are collected in a single volume. From the sublime surrealism of Between Fantoine and Agapa, through the Faulknerian take on rural life in That Voice, to the musical rhythm and flow of Passacaglia, this collection charts the varied career of one of the French New Novel's true luminaries.The space between the fictional towns of Fantoine and Agapa is akin to Faulkner's Yoknapatawpha County: an area where provincialism is neither romanticized nor parodied; where intrigue--often violent intrigue--confronts the bucolic ideal held both by insiders and outsiders; and where reality is shaped not by events, but by talk and gossip, by insinuation and conjecture. Written over the course of his career, these three novels are by turns hilarious and dark, surreal and painstakingly accurate; together they demonstrate the consistent quality of Pinget's versatility.
