Le chiendent by Raymond Queneau
Seated in a Paris caf , a man glimpses another man, a shadowy figure hurrying for the train: Who is he? he wonders, How does he live? And instantly the shadow comes to life, precipitating a series of comic run-ins among a range of disreputable and heartwarming characters living on the sleazy outskirts of the city of lights. Witch Grass (previously titled The Bark Tree) is a philosophical farce, an epic comedy, a mesmerizing book about the daily grind that is an enchantment itself.
The Translator: Madeleine Velguth is an assistant professor of French at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. She received her Ph.D. in French from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. In addition to her monograph, The Representation of Women in the Autobiographical Novels of Raymond Queneau (Peter Lang, 1990), she has published articles on Queneau, Drieu la Rochelle, Derrida, Sarraute and Stendhal.
