The ratiocinations in Paul Auster’s The New York Trilogy have two unique characteristics: the detectives carry out their ratiocinations with writings, and other external stories weave them together intertextually. The writings end up failing, which suggests that the detectives fail to reveal the truth out of the disordered world. This is a crucial flaw for a crime fiction. But it is the failure of writing that enables The New York Trilogy to breach the conventions of traditional crime fiction and so to throw its rational and scientific project into question. Several other stories and novels, such as Edgar Allan Poe’s “William Wilson”, Nathaniel Hawthorne’s “Wakefield” and Fanshawe, construct the plots and main elements of the The New York Trilogy. These other stories and novels give birth to the detectives whose privileged positions in the detective/crime opposition, because they dissolve into the plot, become unstable. The failure of writing and loss of detectives’ identity disturb the consumptional reading which is in search of the origin or authority in the text. The New York Trilogy defies the epistemological will to dominate the other and opens itself to the traverse of readers. It leads readers to playful and productive readings refusing to accede and simply consume the meaning imposed by authority.
Abstract
The ratiocinations in Paul Auster’s The New York Trilogy have two unique characteristics: the detectives carry out their ratiocinations with writings, and other external stories weave them together intertextually. The writings end up failing, which suggests that the detectives fail to reveal the truth out of the disordered world. This is a crucial flaw for a crime fiction. But it is the failure of writing that enables The New York Trilogy to breach the conventions of traditional crime fiction and so to throw its rational and scientific project into question. Several other stories and novels, such as Edgar Allan Poe’s “William Wilson”, Nathaniel Hawthorne’s “Wakefield” and Fanshawe, construct the plots and main elements of the The New York Trilogy. These other stories and novels give birth to the detectives whose privileged positions in the detective/crime opposition, because they dissolve into the plot, become unstable. The failure of writing and loss of detectives’ identity disturb the consumptional reading which is in search of the origin or authority in the text. The New York Trilogy defies the epistemological will to dominate the other and opens itself to the traverse of readers. It leads readers to playful and productive readings refusing to accede and simply consume the meaning imposed by authority.
