Postmodernism and the devices of symbolism and originality

Hervé Le Tellier's effort at literary representation, bypassing modern aesthetics and thus fixated on postmodernism, so to speak, reduces the situation to a procedure for presenting in a certain way. In fact, he makes use of the devices of symbolism and originality, with a view to reclaiming elements that have been put on show. Using processes and effects such as discontinuity, hypertextuality and renarrativization, Hervé Le Tellier's L'Anomalie makes explicit use of the devices of symbolism and originality to achieve his aim of grasping the world around him, with a view to touching on avant-garde scientific insinuations and related fantasy, and to more or less voluntarily interest a hypothetical audience.
