Synopsis

Reviews

Paul Alexis, who called himself an “outsider”, deserved to be re-discovered as a writer in his own right, and not only as Emile Zola’s follower. The study of his many-sided personality and literary achievement will evince both the peculiarity and endowment of him as a writer.

Review - French Zoliste justement oublie , comme le qualifiait a tort Willy en 1925, Paul Alexis (1847-1901) se designait lui-meme comme un outsider. Cet ecrivain attachant et non depourvu de talent meritait de sortir de l'ombre et de n'etre plus seulement considere comme un feal d'Emile Zola. En effet, l'homme et son oeuvre demeurent a ce jour meconnus, comme si l'obsession de l'echec et le sens aigu d'une fatalite adverse poursuivaient Alexis jusque dans sa posterite. A travers l'etude des multiples facettes de sa singularite litteraire, cet ouvrage permet de cerner au plus pres la maniere alexienne, dans ses exces comme dans ses ellipses, et d'en reveler l'insoupconnee richesse.
