Paradigms of Memory : The Occupation and Other Hi/Stories in the Novels of Patrick Modiano
Overview

The historical background of the Nazi occupation of France offers grounds for reflection on the ambiguous relationship between individual and collective memory. Through investigation, memory, repetition, and a coming to writing, Modiano's narrators represent each one of us as we come to terms with our individual and historical past.
