Fragmented time and textual coherence in J. M. G. Le Clézio: the example of Révolutions and Ritournelle de la hunger

Summary/Abstract: Le Clézio reconfigures literary space through his ability to reconfigure time. In Révolutions and Ritournelle de la faim there is no longer a linearity of the text, because the games that Le Clézio makes with the verb tenses maintain a fragmented writing. However, the alternation of the stories and, implicitly, of the verb tenses does not cause cracks in the coherence and cohesion of the text, as the interruption of the linearity of time and of the narrative continuity participates in the dialogic structure of the two novels and in the plurality of points of view. Several temporalities coexist, overlap, follow each other, they are juxtaposed.
