Henri Duchemin and His Shadows By : Emmanuel Bove
Book Excerpt :
Emmanuel Bove was one of the most original writers to come out of twentieth-century France and a popular success in his day. Discovered by Colette, who arranged for the publication of his first novel, My Friends, Bove enjoyed a busy literary career, until the German occupation silenced him. During his lifetime, Bove?s novels and stories were admired by Rainer Maria Rilke, the surrealists, Albert Camus, and Samuel Beckett, who said of him that ?more than anyone else he has an instinct for the essential detail.?Henry Duchemin and His Shadows is the perfect introduction to Bove?s world, with its cast of stubborn isolatoes who call to mind Herman Melville?s Bartleby, Robert Walser?s ?little men,? and Jean Rhys?s lost women. The poet of the flophouse and the dive, the park bench and the pigeon?s crumb, Bove is also a deeply empathetic writer for whom no defeat is so great as to silence desire.[Source: http://www.nybooks.com/books/imprints...]
