Patrick Modiano - Nobel Prize in Literature, 2014 (24 books) torrent

PATRICK MODIANO (b. 1945) is one of France's most admired contemporary novelists and winner of the 2014 Nobel Prize in Literature "for the art of memory with which he has evoked the most ungraspable human destinies and uncovered the life-world of the occupation."

His work is representative of what the French call autofiction, the blend of autobiography and historical fiction. Obsessed with the troubled and shameful period of the Occupation during World War II, Modiano's novels examine the puzzle of individual and collective identities, responsibilities, loyalties, memory, and loss, trying to track evidence of existence through the traces of the past. He returns to these themes in all his novels, book after book building a remarkably homogeneous work.

His writing style has been described as "so spare and elliptical that the words seem only lightly attached to the page." Throughout his body of work, the reader can readily sense the author's perception of the unknowability of other people and the ambiguity of events; it is dark writing with a light touch. Though they are usually set in a specific time and place, so much so that wartime Paris is almost a character in his books, Modiano's works speak a universal truth about the human condition.
