| Résumé anglais |
Far from being a traditional success story, Eva Hoffman's autobiography focuses on a painful interior itinerary in which identity and its textual transcription are constantly called into question. As she tries to draw meaning from her experience, the author explores what she calls « the Babel of American voices » in order to forge an idiom for herself and delineate a space which she may inhabit on the new continent. This leads her to subvert the Utopian grammar of the New World and to elaborate an alternative cultural scenario. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
