Resumo
The experience of immersion in the real world and in the textual world are comparable in that both require that the medium through which the world unfolds remains hidden from our attention. Phenomenology and cognitive science thus speak of a transparent experience, as opposed to the opaque experience implied by awareness of the medium. In this article we study the implications of such processes in relation to the experience of reading the work of the French-Russian writer Antoine Volodine, which the author himself calls “post-exotism”. We argue that in post-exotic literature the multiplication of counter-immersive procedures constitutes a true aesthetics of opacity, understood as an aesthetics of the access to textual worlds, and we will analyze what functions this aesthetics plays in his literary project as a whole.
