«Il n'y a pas de Ajar» is the theatrical monologue by Delphine Horvilleur against identity, published by Bernard Grasset in 2022 (88 pages, in French).
The monologue is performed by Abraham Ajar, supposed son of Emile Ajar, the pseudonym of Romain Gary. In a basement, the character addresses a visitor about inheritance and fixed identity, while the author champions self-reinvention through fiction and evokes Gary, the Bible, Kabbalah, Jewish humour and current debates on nation, gender or transidentity.
The cover subtitle is «Monologue contre l'identité»; the book opens with a preface by the author on Romain Gary and his work, and the edition is paperback.
For readers with an interest in the work of Romain Gary, contemporary French theatre and current debates on identity.
