Claude Simon, les âges de la vie JO - La Revue des lettres modernes (ISSN 0035-2136), 2021 – 10 DO - 10.48611/isbn.978-2-406-12750-5.p.0093 SN - 0035-2136 SP - 93 EP - 119 AB - Based on the observation of the relativity and mobility of the notion of age in the work, this study observes a variable and unequal relationship to time (perception, measurement, marks) in the Simonian characters. This instability in relation to time partly explains why many Simonian characters are not doing their age. Often enigmatic due to their poorly established age, they can appear as witnesses to the bias for the indeterminate which characterizes the author's poetics.
