Summary/Abstract: The present paper undertakes to trace some specificities of the novel Bénarès by the French speaking writer from the island of Mauritius Barlen Pyamootoo. With its clear-cut form and plot, as well as with the simplicity of its language, the work presents certain features which position it closer to minimalism, yet at the same time there are also some others which resonate with the characteristics of the so-called Nouveau Roman.
