- Summary:
- Shumona Sinha, born in Calcutta in 1973 and living in France since 2001, has created a body of work that sets her apart in contemporary French-language literature. Her dual cultural heritage, poetic style, narrative strategies and thematic choices, inspired in equal measure by her own biography and her preoccupation with current social and political events, give rise to a global and dislocated view of the contemporary world, which the author scrutinises and questions with the same thirst for humanity and the same sense of revolt in the face of injustice, whatever the country or the cultural, political or religious context that makes the latter possible. At the same time, his texts underline the need to place literary reception in a post-national perspective, which is better able to capture the transformations of the literary in a post-migrant society. This book is devoted to the entirety of Sinha's literary output to date, and sets out to establish a first collective critical milestone in the reception of what we will describe as his 'world work'.
