内容简介


Winner of the Prix Goncourt

In this strange, elegant novel, winner of France's premier literary prize, Patrick Modiano portrays a man in pursuit of the identity he lost in the murky days of the Paris Occupation, the black hole of French memory.

For ten years Guy Roland has lived without a past. His current life and name were given to him by his recently retired boss, Hutte, who welcomed him, a onetime client, into his detective agency. Guy makes full use of Hutte's files - directories, yearbooks, and papers of all kinds going back half a century - but his leads are few. Could he really be the person in that photograph, a young man remembered by some as a South American attach????? Or was he someone else, perhaps the disappeared scion of a prominent local family? He interviews strangers and is tantalized by half-clues until, at last, he grasps a thread that leads him through the maze of his own repressed experience.

On one level Missing Person is a detective thriller, a 1950s film noir mix of smoky caf????s, illegal passports, and insubstantial figures crossing bridges in the fog. On another level, it is also a haunting meditation on the nature of the self. Modiano's sparce, hypnotic prose, superbly translated by Daniel Weissbort, draws his readers into the intoxication of a rare literary experience. (Verba Mundi)

作者简介


帕特里克?莫迪亚诺,法国当代著名作家,2014年诺贝尔文学奖获得者。

莫迪亚诺1945年生于巴黎郊外布洛涅—比扬古地区,父亲是犹太金融企业家,母亲是比利时演员。1968年莫迪亚诺在伽利玛出版社出版处女作《星形广场》一举成名。1972年的《环城大道》获法兰西学院小说大奖,1978年的《暗店街》获得龚古尔奖。1996年,莫迪亚诺获得法国国家文学奖。他还分别于2010年和2012年获得法兰西学院奇诺?德尔?杜卡基金会世界奖和奥地利欧洲文学奖这两项终身成就奖。

莫迪亚诺的小说常常通过寻找、调查、回忆和探索,将视野转回到从前的岁月,描写“消逝”的过去;也善于运用象征手法,通过某一形象表现出深远的含义。

自1968年至今,莫迪亚诺已经出版近三十部小说,在三十多个国家出版。
