Summary Annotation <div><p style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; mso-hyphenate: none; tab-stops: -.5in" class="MsoNormal">The French novel&#8217;s &#8220;return to the story&#8221; in the last decades of the twentieth century and the beginning of the twenty-first is has been widely acknowledged in literary scholarship. But is this assessment accurate? With<i>French Fiction in the Twenty-First Century,</i>Simon Kemp looks at the work of five contemporary writers&#8212;Annie Ernaux, Pascal Quignard, Marie Darrieussecq, Jean Echenoz, and Patrick Modiano&#8212;in the context of the current French literary scene, and examines how far they pursue the innovations of their predecessors and just how far they have turned their backs on the era of experiment.</p></div>
