| Summary: | This article examines how Jonathan Safran Foer's novel, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, stages the links between fable and trauma, with the postulate that the former is capable of producing a salutary distortion of the latter. First, it studies how the novel recreates some of the consequences of trauma: the derealization of the world and the fabulations which are imposed on the traumatized character. Then, we analyze how the production of an intimate fable allows to distort what is impossible to elaborate in trauma. |
