L’équivoque chez Michel Houellebecq : subtilités d’un personnage ambigu

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:Michel Houellebecq is a French acute writer whose offensive words – in his novels or in his public comments – are quite many; however, more often than not, they are metaphoric or in second degree, calling for another interpretation’s level. In this article, we aim to analyze several issues present in Michel Houellebecq’s works, as well as the strategies of ambiguity employed by the author, strategies that set off the polemic aspect of this writer labelled ‘‘individu assez méprisable’’, as he states in his correspondence with B.H. Lévy, Ennemis Publics (Flammarion-Grasset, 2008).
