About:
Place d'Armes est sans doute la plus belle illustration de la personnalité complexe de Scott Symons. Voici un roman qui rend un inconditionnel hommage à Montréal dans ce qu'il a de plus ancien, alors que l'on inaugure Expo 67. Voici qu'un personnage, Andrew Harrison, écrit Place d'Armes, alors que l'instant d'après Hugh Anderson, alias Scott Symons, reprend ses propos, les discute, les juge. Un récit en abyme donc et un roman postmoderne.
English:
Place d'Armes is undoubtedly the best illustration of the complex personality of
Scott Symons. Here is a novel that pays an unconditional tribute to Montreal at its
oldest, as Expo 67 is inaugurated. Here is a character, Andrew Harrison, writing
Place d'Armes, while the moment of 'after Hugh Anderson, alias Scott Symons, takes
up his remarks, discusses them, judges them. A story in abyme therefore and a
postmodern novel.
