Benjamin Jordane, roman Jeux identitaires et aventures métatextuelles dans l’œuvre de Jean-Benoît Puech

A theorist of the author and the œuvre, through the invention of an imaginary writer Benjamin Jordan, Jean-Benoît Puech has developed games of literary mystification to a degree not seen before: becoming the commentator of his own work, he enters into a dialogue with his own heteronym in a troubled form of literary schizophrenia. His approach leads to a constructivist, intertextual, and pluralist vision of personal identity as well as a particularly singular conception of literature.
