Memory in Modiano’s Novel: Invisible Ink

Summary/Abstract: Memory refers to the moment folded on top of each other and a plane where the moments become visible. Memory needs space, time, and images to survive. Like many contemporary writers who write works like a rebellion against forgetting, Modiano turns her direction to memories. The author, who builds her novels on remembering and forgetting, makes great efforts to gain visibility and meaning to the past moments and to prove her existence by being recorded and articulated on top of each other. The author’s novel Invisible Ink, which was published in 2019, exhibits a disjointed structure in which the narrator’s mental state is characterized by the narrative structure, where the storytelling is replaced by the narrative story consisting of memory fragments. In the study, it will be shown how the concepts of memory, remembering and forgetting find their place at the narrative level and how the author evokes the act of remembering by evoking the images from the past semantically and sensorially.
