  • Publication type: Article from a collective work
  • Collective work:
    L’Unité de l’œuvre de Michel Houellebecq
  • Author: Bousquet (Louis)
  • Abstract: Houellebecq describes a hedonistic economy which introduces a capitalist model into people’s lives and makes real human relations impossible. Closely following the workings of this new type of mercantilism, we will find the conditions leading to such failure and discover how they contribute to the moral decline of his characters.
