Abstract:
When discussing W.G. Sebald’s work, noumerous scholars point to the “silent presence of the Shoah” (Dreyfus 2014), and that the subject is always addressed in his work in rather an “oblique way” (Hunt 2011). It is precisely this “oblique” perspective that we are interested in putting into perspective in the work of the Luxemburgish writer Anise Koltz (La lune noircie, 2009) and the Belgian author Paul Willems (Les miroirs d'Ostende, 1978), as they introduce the subject. We propose in this study to examine the aesthetic and ethical questions posed by fiction in this era of “after”, “composed of a series of ‘post’”, as Catherine Coquio states.
