The Writing of the Disaster New edition
Maurice Blanchot
Reflects upon efforts to abide in disaster's infinite threat. First published in French in 1980, this title takes up the most serious tasks of writing: to describe, explain, and redeem when possible, and to admit what is not possible. Neither offers consolation.
