Abstract
Nombre des livres d’Amélie Nothomb sont bâtis autour d’éléments appartenant au « policier », toujours utilisés de manière détournée ou parodiée. Dans la lignée des post-Nouveaux Romans, ils participent à une réflexion sur la construction, à la première personne, de l’identité narrative et auctoriale. Cet article considère les multiples facettes du motif de l’investigation et du dévoilement de soi, et le travail du lecteur face au pouvoir de l’écrit chez Nothomb, en s’appuyant principalement sur Le Fait du prince et Hygiène de l’assassin. Many of Nothomb’s books borrow from traditional features of crime fiction. In line with post-Nouveaux Romans, they do so whilst resorting to parody, in a bid to reflect on the levels of construction, in first-person narratives, of the identities of authors and narrators. This study considers the narrative possibilities opened by investigations and processes of unveiling, and the role to be played by the reader faced with the power of the written word, in the works of Nothomb, as seen in particular in Le Fait du prince and Hygiène de l’assassin.
