Pointing at the Moon
No full textPointing at the Moon Humid, jungle nights, I’d look upthrough the break in dense canopy,see innumerable stars painted ona Pollock sky, and there on a throne sat Miller,stoned again, pointing at the moon, a god in fatiguesteaching the platoon about Buddha’s awakening. Miller thought that if he aimed right,and if the drugs were pure enough,one night his finger would touch the moon. He never counted on that booby trap blowing both his legs off, turning the rice paddy around him a dull red. It’s..

Return to the 1960s: the Role of ‘68 in Paul Auster’s Life and Work
No full textThis essay explores the impact of 1968 on Paul Auster’s life and work. Its main analytical focus is on Auster’s critique of the anti-authoritative ethos of his generation in the early fictional autobiography Moon Palace (1989), but it draws comparisons to his later work as well, including 4 3 2 1 (2017) and the autobiographies Hand to Mouth (1997) and Report from the Interior (2013). Auster’s participation in the 1968 student uprising and his subsequent witnessing of the radicalization of the student movement have resulted in an authorial stance on ’68 that is marked by ambivalence and hindsight bias. Auster’s early letters show that Auster subscribed to a Marxist worldview before ’68, that his experiences in April changed him, and that he has since assumed center-left position in his prose work. Originally founded on Merleau-Ponty’s post-Cartesian philosophy, this position enables Auster to remain sympathetic to the egalitarian and antiwar causes of the Left, but critical of the general rejection of authorities that so characterized the late 1960s. The essay concludes that Moon Palace can be read as an appeal for the depolarization of the American political past.Cet essai explore l’impact de 1968 sur la vie et l’œuvre de Paul Auster. L’analyse porte principalement sur la critique de l’esprit antiautoritaire formulée par Auster au sujet de sa génération dans l’autobiographie fictionnelle Moon Palace (1989), à l’aune de ses travaux plus récents sur le sujet, qui incluent 4 3 2 1 (2017), et les autobiographies Hand to Mouth (1997) et Report from the Interior (2013). La participation de Paul Auster aux mouvements étudiants de 1968, dont il a par la suite été témoin de la radicalisation, résulte en une position auteuriste sur 1968 marquée par l’ambivalence et un recul biaisé. Les lettres de jeunesse de Paul Auster démontrent qu’il adhérait à une vision du monde marxiste avant 1968, que ses expériences au mois d’avril le transformèrent, et qu’il a depuis adopté une position de centre-gauche dans son œuvre de prose. Initialement fondée sur la philosophie post-cartésienne de Merleau-Ponty, cette position permet à Auster de soutenir les causes égalitariennes et pacifistes de la Gauche, tout en restant critique envers le rejet des autorités en général, si représentatif de la fin des années 1960. En conclusion, cet essai propose de lire Moon Palace comme un appel à la dépolarisation du passé politique américain
