Marco Modenesi, « Les romans de Thierry Jonquet: le lecteur à l’œuvre », Ledizioni
Thierry Jonquet has been one of the greatest writers of detective novels of the twentieth century. It is undeniable that Jonquet expresses, through his works, a heavy and violent criticism to the deformations of society, to the scandals and aberrations that characterize it and that nourish the content of his novels (and that, almost always, Jonquet draws from everyday chronicle). It is also true, however, that Jonquet reveals to be a perfect master of the mechanisms that regulate, in the detective novel, the dialogue between the novel and its reader. Aware of the codes that structure the genre, Jonquet modifies them with remarkable mastery. This helps to keep alive, in original and unexpected ways, the surprise effect that must be aroused in the reader, but above all – playing on the narrative stereotypes expected by the reader – it testifies the perfect awareness (and creative control) of the fact that a detective novel, a crime story, are first and foremost a mechanism whose functioning and whose more or less disruptive effects depend on the active intervention operated by an act of reading.
