Le Clezio is ever the master at rendering existence at the level of sensation with a daring and admirable freshness of language (Peter Brooks, New York Times) Le Clezio's work defies easy characterization, but in more than 40 essays, novels and children's books, he has written of exile and self-discovery, of cultural dislocation and globalization, of the clash between modern civilization and traditional cultures. Having lived and taught in many parts of the world, he writes as fluently about North African immigrants in France, native Indians in Mexico and islanders in the Indian Ocean as he does about his own past . (The New York Times)
