The Station Hill Blanchot Reader: Fiction & Literary Essays
by Maurice Blanchot;Robert Quasha GeorgeLamberton (9781886449176)

"Of the small number of unimpeachably major, original voices in modern French literature, Blanchot's enthralling fiction and essays have waited the longest to find an audience in English". -- Susan Sontag

The short novels and critical essays published by Station Hill Press over the last two decades essentially established Maurice Blanchot in America as one of the great writers of French Modernism. This collection brings these influential works back into print (some unavailable for years). The Reader includes six works of fiction: Death Sentence, The Madness of the Day, When the Time Comes, Vicious Circles, Thomas the Obscure, The One Who Was Standing Apart from Me, and extended selections of critical and philosophical essays from his major book, The Gaze of Orpheus.
