Description: Jail Sentences : Representing Prison in Twentieth-century French Fiction, Hardcover by Sobanet, Andrew, ISBN 0803213794, ISBN-13 9780803213791, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Jail Sentences is the definitive study of the legacy of the Western tradition of prison writing in twentieth-century French literature. Although Sobanet focuses primarily on French writers Victor Serge, Jean Genet, Albertine Sarrazin, and Francois Bon - his keen sense of literary dialogue pulls into the orbit of his study an international corpus of work, from Dostoyevsky to Malcolm X. Jail Sentences arrives at a coherent definition of the genre, whose unique conventions stem from the innermost regions of our understanding of stories, truth, fiction, and belief.
