In 1985 Claude Simon won the Nobel Prize for Literature. This book provides an introduction to, and survey of, the most important novels written by a man considered by many to be the most important and innovative writer of the French New Novel group. The book's introduction situates Simon in the context of 20th-century French literature. Ten chapters are devoted to the principle works published by Simon, from "The Wind" (1957) to his masterpiece "The Georgics" (1981). The bibliography lists the most significant critical studies in English and French devoted to his work.
