Nobel win showcases Le Clézio
Jean-Marie Gustave Le Clézio, or JMG Le Clézio to his
friends, was one of Europe's great literary secrets until he won
the Nobel Prize for Literature this week and became the book
world's hottest property. The 68-year-old French author has more
than 30 books to his name but many are out-of-print or simply hard
to find. Le Clézio is a seasoned traveler and has an
affinity for deserts, which sometimes feature in his writing. He is
also prone to examining nomads, childhood memories and Native
American mythologies.
Not all of his work has been translated from French but it is
possible to find English versions of books such as Fever (1966),
The Giants (1975), Onitsha (1997) and Wandering Star (2004). Since
the Nobel announcement, the author's publishers have been
scrambling to reissue his novels but Le Clézio's
hard-to-find books are already selling quickly on AbeBooks.com with
demand coming mainly from the United States.
