Bound to Violence | 
Last November, I read La plus secrète mémoire des hommes (Prix Goncourt 2021) by Mohamed Mbougar Sarr, inspired by the disappearance of Yambo Ouologuem from literary life after his acclaimed novel “Le devoir de violence“ (Bound to Violence) was found to contain many plagiarised passages (arguably, as part of intertextual plays rather than literary theft) and removed from shelves. It was republished in 2018, and I am now reading it.
