This book’s aim is to provide a critical bird’s eye view of Blaise Cendrar’s oeuvre, through readings which sample its interdisciplinary diversity, as indicated by the protean metaphor of the title. Colvile’s six essays on the Franco-Swiss literal and literary vagabond have been organized under the headings of Cendrar’s three main genres: poetry, fiction and journalism. The heterogeneous assemblage of verse and prose texts analyzed here with a variety of theoretical approaches, should convey and reflect Cendrars’ eccentricity and intellectual independence,

Reading a text is an ethical activity for Emmanuel Levinas. His moral philosophy considers written texts to be natural places to discover relations of responsibility in Western philosophical systems which are marked by extreme violence and totalizing hatred. While ethics is understood to mean a relationship with the other and reading is the appropriation of the other to the self, readings according to Levinas naturally entail relationships with the other.

Beginning in Paris on the eve of the Nazi occupation in 1940. Suite Française tells the remarkable story of men and women thrown together in circumstances beyond their control.

By the early l940s, when Ukrainian-born Irène Némirovsky began working on what would become Suite Française—the first two parts of a planned five-part novel—she was already a highly successful writer living in Paris. But she was also a Jew, and in 1942 she was arrested and deported to Auschwitz: a month later she was dead at the age of thirty-nine. Two years earlier, living in a small village in central France—where she, her husband, and their two small daughters had fled in a vain attempt to elude the Nazis—she’d begun her novel, a luminous portrayal of a human drama in which she
