L’analyse que fait Marilyn Randall de Prochain épisode (2006), loin d’en dissoudre les contradictions structurelles au profit d’une vague « révolution littéraire », y voit l’effet d’un dispositif qui place les lecteurs devant des choix (restaurer à tout prix la cohérence globale du récit, ou reconnaître son caractère irréductiblement paradoxal) qui...
