Report from the Interior in Paul Auster’s work: Self-writing or “the uninterrupted narrative that continues until the day we die”
This essay analyzes the way Report from the Interior, Auster’s fifth autobiographical text, fits in his production which can be seen as largely autobiographical not only because Auster uses many biographems in his fiction, but also because his whole work (poetic, fictional and non-fictional) seems t...

| description | This essay analyzes the way Report from the Interior, Auster’s fifth autobiographical text, fits in his production which can be seen as largely autobiographical not only because Auster uses many biographems in his fiction, but also because his whole work (poetic, fictional and non-fictional) seems to originate in a global autobiographical project which he has been developing from his very first texts onward. It also presents the work done by several researchers of the LERMA Research Unit, at Aix Marseille Université, on Report from the Interior which they have analyzed in its autobiographical, literary, linguistic, visual or epistolary dimensions. Their exploration of this strange memoir, described by Auster as “four things in one,” gave birth to the essays published in this issue of E-rea. |
