«David Lodge Coffret 3 Volumes» is the box set with three novels by David Lodge, published by Rivages in paperback (1272 pages, in French).
The Rummidge trilogy follows British and American academics: a professor exchange between two universities, the international conference circuit, and a literature specialist entering the working world. With satirical humour, David Lodge portrays the ambitions, contradictions and entanglements of university life.
The three novels in the box set, Jeu de société, Changement de décor and Un tout petit monde, form the «Rummidge Trilogy» (The Campus Trilogy).
For readers who enjoy academic satire, British humour and contemporary literary fiction.
David John Lodge was an English novelist and critic. He was a literature professor at the University of Birmingham until 1987, and some of his novels satirise academic life, notably the "Campus Trilogy" – Changing Places: A Tale of Two Campuses (1975), Small World: An Academic Romance (1984) and Nice Work (1988). The latter two were shortlisted for the Booker Prize. Another theme is Roman Catholicism, beginning from his first published novel The Picturegoers (1960).
