Proust, Pastiche, and the Postmodern or Why Style Matters
James F. Austin
In this book, Austin argues against the traditional critical view that minimizes Proust’s practice of pastiche—the imitation of a writer’s style—and that considers it a simple exercise of mastering the predecessor. Instead, this work establishes pastiche as a powerful, ubiquitous practice central to Proust’s entire oeuvre.
