Abstract

L'œuvre « mythoréaliste » The Explosion Chronicles de Yan Lianke a donné lieu, dans la traduction en anglais de Carlos Rojas, à d’importantes reconstructions narratives de la fictionalité de son intrigue. Trois stratégies de reconstruction – la relation établie aux questions sociales contemporaines américaines, le renforcement du récit historique, l’atténuation de la fictionalité – sont destinées à répondre aux attentes du lecteur-cible.
