Life
Claude Simon was born in Antananarivo, Madagascar. His father was killed in World War I, and Simon was raised by his mother in Perpignan, France. After studies in Paris and Oxford, Simon took painting lessons and traveled around Europe. Simon’s literary production reflects experiences from his travels and during World War II. He was captured at the Battle of Meuse in 1940 but managed to escape and then became involved in the resistance movement. Simon was one of the foremost interpreters of the modernist current in French literature.
Work
Claude Simon’s debut came in 1946 with the novel Le Tricheur (The Cheat). His big breakthrough had to wait until 1960, with the novel La Route des Flandres (The Road to Flanders), in which he describes his experiences during World War II. Simon represented “le nouveau roman” (the new novel), a literary style that disregards form elements such as linear narrative, action and dialogue. His work is based instead on narrative principles used in film, with zooming in and out and a free relationship to time. Simon’s last published novel was Le Jardin des Plantes (1997) (The Jardin des Plantes).
作品
克劳德-西蒙的处女作是1946年的小说《骗子》（Le Tricheur）。他的重大突破要等到1960年，小说《弗兰德斯之路》（La Route des Flandres），其中他描述了他在第二次世界大战期间的经历。西蒙是 "新小说"（le nouveau roman）的代表，这种文学风格无视线性叙事、行动和对话等形式元素。他的作品取而代之的是电影中使用的叙事原则，有放大和缩小以及与时间的自由关系。西蒙最后出版的小说是《植物园》（1997）（The Jardin des Plantes）。
