Böcker av Jordan Stump

Focuses on the work of Raymond Queneau, one of the influential French novelists of the twentieth century. This work examines four issues in Queneau's novels - the nature of writing and of creation in general, the possibility or impossibility of knowledge, the relationship between the individual and the group, and the uses of power and control.

Jordan Stump had often contemplated the relationship between a translation and ""the book itself"", ruminating on the intriguing inherent sameness and difference between the two. In The Other Book, Stump examines the ""other"" forms of a book and the ways in which they both mirror and depart from the original.
