Belgian writer, hailed by McCarthy as a kind of heir to Robbe-Grillet
writes about "the naive individual's skewed encounter with systems larger than himself" ... "encounter[s] with structure"
186: "We don't want plot, depth, or content: we want angles, arcs and intervals; we want pattern. Structure is content; geometry is everything."
a "slapstick" element ("in the Keaton-Chaplin mould," per 185, though certainly Tati would be the more salient reference?)
