Claude Simon Signed Book The World About Us 1985 Nobel Prize Winner – COA JSA

Description

Presented is a softcover book – “The World About Us”, autographed by the author Claude Simon. He signed an end page on a bookplate in black pen (“8-9”).

Much of Claude Simon’s writing is autobiographical, dealing with personal experiences from World War II and the Spanish Civil War, and his family history. His early novels are largely traditional in form, but with Le vent (1957) and L’Herbe (1958) he developed a style associated with the Nouveau roman. La Route de Flandres (1960), which tells about wartime experiences, earned him the L’Express prize and international recognition. In Triptyque (1973) three different stories are mixed together without paragraph breaks. The novels Histoire (1967), Les Géorgiques (1981) and L’Acacia (1989) are largely about Simon’s family history.
