Quote_1.png
Raymond Queneau
"Many novelists take well-defined, precise characters, whose stories are sometimes of mediocre interest, and place them in an important historical context, which remains secondary in spite of everything."

Interest

Quote_1.png
Raymond Queneau
"There have been only rare moments in history where individual histories were able to run their course without wars or revolutions."

History

Quote_1.png
Raymond Queneau
"The Odyssey is the story of Americans up to the point where they are well-established, and even so it is detached from the historical side."

Politics

Quote_1.png
Raymond Queneau
"When Ulysses hears his own story sung by an epic poet and then he reveals his identity and the poet wants to continue singing, Ulysses isn't interested any longer. That's very astonishing."

Identity

Quote_1.png
Raymond Queneau
"One can easily classify all works of fiction either as descendants of the Iliad or of the Odyssey."

Fiction

Quote_1.png
Raymond Queneau
"A very great Iliad... concerns the creation of a nation."

Creation

Quote_1.png
Raymond Queneau
"It is the creator of fiction's point of view; it is the character who interests him. Sometimes he wants to convince the reader that the story he is telling is as interesting as universal history."

History

Quote_1.png
Raymond Queneau
"We have gotten away from this double aspect of either putting the character back into historical events or of making a historical event of his very life."

Life

Quote_1.png
Raymond Queneau
"Ulysses finds himself unchanged, aside from his experience, at the end of his odyssey."

Experience

Quote_1.png
Raymond Queneau
"To have one's own story told by a third party who doesn't know that the character in question is himself the hero of the story being told, that's a technical refinement."
