Summary:
The varied work of Louis Guilloux, is distinguished by a permanent concern for the renewal of forms and the singular place it gives to man and the question of evil. The description allows him to construct the realistic illusion, it reveals all the worries and hesitations that the romantic reconstruction of reality implies. The existential position of the novelist entails a distancing of the traditional illusionist processes and a derealization of the objects described. The description therefore has the function of sharing the difficulty of inhabiting the world.--L'Harmattan.
