The Essential David Shrigley par Johanna Felter, publié le 21/05/2013: "David Shrigley is a multidisciplinary artist who started his career in the early nineties self-publishing art books containing cartoon-like drawings for which he is mainly famous. Their trademarks, which are also recognizable in his varied artistic productions – clumsy execution, sloppy handwriting, disturbing or puzzling text, dark humour and uncanny atmosphere – helped Shrigley to gradually shape a clearly distinctive personality in his work which brought him out as one of the current key figures of British contemporary art scene."

The spoken word and the written word in Paul Auster’s The Brooklyn Follies par Catherine Pesso-Miquel, publié le 16/10/2009: This article analyses the construction of voices in Paul Auster’s The Brooklyn Follies, in which the paradoxical relationship between printed signs on a page and phonemes uttered by human bodies is fore-grounded. Auster revels in creating lively dialogues that are carefully inscribed within a particular voice through the use of didascalia, but he also celebrates the physicality and euphony of a narrative voice which navigates between elegiac lyricism and sharp-witted humour. The Brooklyn Follies, like all Auster’s books, is a book about books, but this one is also a book about tales and story-telling, about speech and silence, and the very American tradition of tall tales.

« X marks the spot » ou la question de l'identité dans The Brooklyn Follies de Paul Auster par Morgane Joudren, publié le 08/10/2009: Les diverses déclinaisons de « X marks the spot » délimitent les pôles entre lesquels évolue cette quête de sens qui se fait jour à travers The Brooklyn Follies. « X marks the spot » évoque non seulement la croix du condamné à mort, le poids de la culpabilité, mais aussi les comptines pour enfants, l’insouciance, le jeu. Et si c’était ça, l’existence humaine ? Une suite de combinaisons aléatoires d’ombres et de lumières à travers lesquelles l’individu se fraye bon gré mal gré un chemin l’espace d’une vie. Moments de désespoir, de folie destructrice, mais aussi d’innocence retrouvée et d’adéquation au monde.

Fiche de lecture : The Discomfort Zone, Jonathan Franzen par Auréliane Narvaez, publié le 03/05/2008: Thirty years after the colorful 1970’s, hurricane Katrina, the Bush Administration’s failure, social inequalities are proof that America is sinking into the Discomfort Zone, along with the narrator who gives way to his discrete feeling of helplessness and invites us to live with it the way he does in a disenchanted but yet humourous way.
