Please join the French & Italian Department for a talk featuring Christy Wampole from Princeton University on Wednesday, January 27, 2021.

In this lecture, Prof. Wampole will discuss her book Degenerative Realism:
Novel and Nation in Twenty-First-Century France (Columbia UP, 2020).
Wampole’s discussion of the “reactionary revival” — what we might call
the Houellebecq aesthetic — in French realist novels should be of broad
