Tramvay

As far as is known, Tram is the last novel of Claude Simon, one of the greatest names of contemporary French literature. Tramway, which is considered to be the last stop of Simon's half-century-long writing adventure, who is considered one of the leading representatives of the "New Novel" movement of the 1950s and also the winner of the 1985 Nobel Prize, clearly demonstrates his tendency to transcend traditional stereotypes as a writer. It reveals this way. Simon, who believes that a narrative that always develops linearly or chronologically is not a real narrative, handles the events in Tram as fragmented and discontinuous, just like in real life, and creates another time where past and present overlap.

Tram, in which a man who looks at the world from his hospital room, oscillating between now and yesterday, tells the story of his journeys to the past with a tram passing through the middle of his life, meets the reader with the foreword of Tahsin Yücel.

A masterpiece that wanders at the peaks of Roman art...
