«Léviathan» is Paul Auster's novel published by Actes Sud in paperback (309 pages, in French).
When the writer Peter Aaron reads that his friend Benjamin Sachs has died in Wisconsin while handling an explosive, he decides to reconstruct his life in writing to prevent the official versions from distorting the facts. The novel thus explores American identity, couple relationships and the coincidences that shape a destiny.
Originally published in 1992, this French edition is a translation from English by Christine Le Boeuf. The novel won the Prix Médicis étranger in 1993.
Aimed at readers of contemporary fiction and American literature interested in novels with intrigue and psychological depth.
