Simon Brousseau

Synapses (eBook, ePUB)

Übersetzer: Strauss, Pablo

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Formally inventive, Simon Brousseau's Synapses orchestrates a series of beautifully crafted literary snapshots, each involving a different character, eloquently presented using a sole, twisting and turning, stylistically accomplished sentence written in the second-person singular. Brousseau depicts a vast society of differing psyches and souls, all unique and idiosyncratic, yet interconnected, quasi neurologically, in a dialogic network of humanity. With Synapses, his first novel, Brousseau realizes the surprising feat of a pointillist literary masterpiece.
