Just to inform you about Priya's article that was published today in the peer-reviewed journal Contemporary French and Francophone Studies. You will find the abstract in the link below:
Her article, "Manger chez Perec:
Food on the Threshold between Metaphor and Matter in W
ou le souvenir d'enfance,” concerns the lack of food
and memories in this important book by Perec, published in 1975.
This article informs a chapter in my second book project, tentatively called The
Anti-Madeleine: the Denial of Taste in Post-War French Literature. My book
focuses on the myriad ways in which Proust’s famous madeleine episode has been
re-written in the century since the first volume of his masterwork was
published, focusing on the post-war period in particular. The paper she will give
in the spring originates in this project as well.
Happy Holidays,
