About the book

In 'Marie Darrieussecq. Ou voir le monde à neuf', the first study in French of the novelist?s works to date, Colette Trout highlights the innovative qualities of her writing. Darrieussecq treats the themes of female sexuality, the search for identity, or the confrontation with death through a variety of narrative forms, melding the realistic with the fantastic. Giving special attention to the transgressive and courageous nature of Darrieussecq?s texts, Trout depicts her fearless deconstruction of the clichés that paralyze our thinking. Like an archeologist of the word, the author digs under multiple layers of language to return to words their power to 'show us the world anew.'
