This book explores the notion of hyperrealism in the novels of P. Deville.

This book explores the notion of hyperrealism in the novels of P. Deville. The choice and examination of the texts are based on the desire to show that the deployment of media in the internal organization of contemporary novelistic fiction is an innovative aesthetic in which the attempt to integrate the real now involves techniques for magnifying the real. The importance given to detail and the abundance of media that constitute its representational detours lead to the derealization of referents, through a paroxysm of representation, in the process of apprehending reality. The aesthetic resulting from such a practice reveals an apparent fragmentation, not only of the characters under the spell of the multiplicity of representation, but also of the novel itself. This fascination enables the author to take a look at media paradigms and their corollaries, to denounce the practices of contemporary society caught up in simulacra and simulation. It's a painful rewriting that reveals the deep malaise of the individual in a society that depersonalizes him and tends to place him on the same level as everyday consumer objects.
