Linearity as Metadiscourse in Murray Bail’s Fiction by Marie Herbillon

“…Même si certains commentateurs ont rapidement détecté la géométrisation systématique de ses espaces narratifs, dans lesquels s’entrecroisent des myriades de lignes droites, peu en ont souligné la dimension politico-parodique: en feignant de souscrire à la culture de la linéarité, Bail vise manifestement à la dénoncer et, avec elle, un certain héritage occidental.Cette réflexion sur le concept de linéarité peut également prendre un tour métafictionnel: bien que ses intentions parodiques le contraignent parfois à emprunter au réalisme certains de ses codes narratifs, l’auteur désavoue indubitablement ce genre littéraire par trop linéaire, qu’il voit comme "la grande malédiction de la littérature australienne. …”
