Béatrice Cussol
Synopsis: Béatrice Cussol continues her poetic epic and presents a novel – or rather, an open-ended writing experiment – to which literary criticism has led her. The cruel strangeness of the artist’s visual work finds its relentless echo here, in an epic that twists and chisels the language of her deconstructed prose.
Following Merci (2000), Pompon (2001), Diane? (2003), Sinon (2007) and Les Souffleuses (2009), Béatrice Cussol returns to the experimental novel. Every sentence contributes to this with its unsettling unpredictability, its curious improprieties, its slips, dislocations and shifts that throw it off balance, giving the language a nonchalant lesson in contemporaneity and an ironic twist that dissolves the narrative. Here, everything is deviant, unstable, neologistic, adventurous, attuned to both the repressed and the rage.
