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, LEa 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","brand":"World of Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53674461888785,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781781883334.jpg?v=1781532857","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/products\/books-pascal-quignard-by-lea-vuong","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
