Reading Writing Summary

Reading Writing by Julien Gracq

Every reader is a potential writer and every writer is a reader in actuality. The book is on both a subjective history of fiction and poetry and a reflection on the links between literature and two visual arts: painting and cinema.

"Mr Gracq is one of the more stimulating and original imaginations in contemporary French literature." - The New York Times Book Review"

About Julien Gracq

Julien Gracq (1910-2007), born Louis Poirier in Saint-Florent-le-Vieil, was one of the greatest French writers of the twentieth century. His work included essays, criticism, fiction and journalism. He won but refused the Prix Goncourt in 1951 for his novel Le Rivage des Syrtes (The Opposing Shore). This retiring and misunderstood figure said he wrote "to settle a score with expression itself, to give form, stability, precision to things that are vague in the mind."
