Résumé

Look at her. There she is. She is all there. She's all there but she's always trying to make herself disappear - a spectre, a smudge, a blur, a subject that is erased but recognizable. In The Position Spoons, Deborah Levy traces and measures her life against the backdrop of the literary and artistic muses that have shaped her - including a letter to her dying mother and to an absent friend. This volume illuminates and celebrates a rich and varied intellectual inheritance - and reflects on how it has enriched the author's own work.
Taking in questions of mortality, language, gender, place, consumerism and everyday living, the acclaimed novelist invites her reader behind the curtain of a creative life, 'in which the position of the spoon is always changing'.
Deborah Levy is the author of eight novels : Beautiful Mutants, Swallowing Geography, The Unloved, Billy and Girl, Swimming Home, Hot Milk, The Man Who Saw Everything, and August Blue. She has been shortlisted twice each for the Goldsmiths Prize and the Man Booker Prize. Her short-story collection, Black Vodka, was nominated for the Frank O'Connor International Short Story Award and was broadcast on BBC Radio 4, as were her acclaimed dramatizations of Freud's iconic case studies, "Dora" and "The Wolfman'".
Deborah Levy is also the author of a formally innovative and emotionally daring trilogy of memoirs, a living autobiography on writing, gender politics and philosophy, of which Real Estate is the final volume. The first two volumes, Things I Don't Want to Know and The Cost of Living, won the Prix Femina Etranger 2020. Her work is widely translated.
