Description
In this study which examines the whole range of Gide's fiction in the light of modern literary theory, the author builds on recent work of French scholars and draws on original research to provide new readings of Gide's texts. The novelist emerges not only as an innovative artist in his own time but also as an important precursor of much contemporary fiction.
