PARADIGMS OF MEMORY GEBUNDEN

The first collective study in English of the novels of Patrick Modiano (b. 1945)  these essays
approach the question of memory - and its interaction with history - in Modiano's works from
several different theoretical and critical angles  all leading to an examination of the
relationship between recollection and representation. The historical background of the Nazi
occupation of France offers grounds for reflection on the ambiguous relationship between
individual and collective memory. Through investigation  memory  repetition  and a coming to
writing  Modiano's narrators represent each one of us as we come to terms with our individual
and historical past.
