'I can't keep up with myself' Philip Roth says the novel is dead, but it would be more accurate to say the audience is dead - we're all just too polite to mention it. What is killing the novel is people's growing dependence on feel-good fiction, fantasy and non-fiction. With this comes an inability or unwillingness to tolerate any irregularities of form, a prissy quibbling over capital letters, punctiliousness about punctuation. They act like we're still at school! Real writing is not about rules. It's about electrifying prose, it's about play. For anyone who wants to write or read daredevil, risk-taking prose, therefore, it was tremendously encouraging that Elfriede Jelinek won the Nobel prize for literature in 2004. But most British readers hadn't heard of her, despite four novels being available from Serpent's Tail (Lust, Wonderful, Wonderful Times, Women as Lovers, and The Piano Teacher), all of them full of her uniquely sneering tone and tireless fury with the human race. Jelinek seized the novel by its bootstraps and shook it upside down. Was she looking for coins or keys, or just trying to prevent fiction swallowing any more insincerity? Her dynamic writing gives a sense of civilisation surviving against the odds. Jelinek's work is brave, adventurous, witty, antagonistic and devastatingly right about the sorriness of human existence, and her contempt is expressed with surprising chirpiness: it's a wild ride. She has also developed a form of cubism, whereby she can approach any subject from any angle, sometimes within the same sentence, homing in with sudden tenacity on some detail such as dirndls or murderers' female pen-pals. Recreating the way the brain lurches along, spreads out, reels itself in or goes on strike, her metaphors and puns run amok, beauteousness sacrificed to a kaleidoscopic inventiveness. Wrongly accused here of writing porn, in America she has been criticised, absurdly, for living with her mother, having a website, and not going along with the war in Iraq. They treat her like some kind of moral philosopher. You can't blame a novelist for being provocative and voicing dissent - that's her job! Without novelists, who's to guide us? Scientists? Priests? Politicians? The innovation in Greed is that Jelinek intrudes more than ever before, rushing in and out of her own book like someone with tummy trouble. She likes to present herself as the bumbling author: "It's a frequent reproach, that I stand around looking stupid and drop my characters, before I even have them, because to be honest I pretty quickly find them dull." She admits to many mistakes: "Oh dear, that doesn't work, and it's also a repetition. Forgive me, I often can't keep up with myself." She hates naming her characters - "It sounds so silly." She identifies a needy piano teacher as a portrait of herself, then proceeds to ridicule and finally destroy her. What it amounts to is a dismantling of the novel before our eyes. Greed lacks the focus of Jelinek's previous books, and is nearly incoherent at times. It is a cry of despair - despair about herself as a writer as much as about the characters she invents: "What is so wretched about me, that I can only be used for writing?" These are the exasperated outpourings of a great writer suffering from a lack of recognition (the book was written before Jelinek won the Nobel). There's a bewildered, lonely quality to it, as well as a few too many references to current affairs, and some lazy passages that suggest she no longer believes she has any readers at all - and despite that, some wonderful, defiant mischief-making. She can't go on, she will go on. The plot, involving the semi-accidental murder of a teenage girl and the dumping of her body in an ominous lake, is minimal and haphazard, its main function to flesh out the divisions between men and women. They are on completely different wavelengths, the women in love with a "country policeman", and he latently in love with men, and blatantly with property. There are other greeds, too, that of banks, naturally, and phone companies, "hot for our voices", and the church. Describing a fancy crucifix, Jelinek writes: "the prominent victim is so full of pride at his stiff price that he's almost bursting out of the screws with which he's fastened to his instrument". But the country policeman's greed surpasses all. He has prostituted himself to every woman in the vicinity and beyond, in the hope that they will hand over their houses to him, or at least leave him something in their wills. He thinks of female genitalia in the same way, all these doors permanently flung open for him. Jelinek circles round him, disgustedly observing that he "completely lacks a whole dimension, that is . that there are other people apart from himself". "We should all hate corporeal life, but only this country policeman . really does hate it. One just doesn't notice at first, because he sometimes jokes and laughs and sings songs to the accordion." She is equally scathing about women and their repellent eagerness to be loved. Sex is furtive, violent, base - "you give each other a good licking" - and love merely a common foible which, for women at least, always involves a dangerous loss of selfhood. Jelinek gives us a startling glimpse here of what women are, as well as answering Freud's question, "What do women want?" It's neither gentle nor sweet nor safe nor reasonable - just true. · Lucy Ellmann's latest novel is Doctors and Nurses (Bloomsbury) User Search limit reached - please wait a few minutes and try again.

    From Bookforum, June-September 2005: 44-45. Vienna Roast: On Elfriede Jelinek The Piano Teacher by Elfriede Jelinek, Translated by Joachim Neugroschel. London: Serpent's Tail. 280 pages. $15; Wonderful, Wonderful Times by Elfriede Jelinek, Translated by Michael Hulse. London: Serpent’s Tail. 253 pages. $15. Marjorie Perloff In the English-speaking world, the awarding of the 2004 Nobel Prize for literature to the Austrian novelist-playwright Elfriede Jelinek has been met—when met at all—by puzzled incredulity or downright outrage. Last fall, British papers like The Sunday Times and The Scotsman chuckled that the Nobel could go to an obscure Austrian feminist communist “porn author,” whose small independent publisher in Britain, Serpent’s Tail, supposedly sold only 270 copies of The Piano Teacher in 2003, “while three other novels [Women as Lovers, Wonderful Wonderful Times, and Lust] sold barely 50 copies each” (Scotsman, 8 Oct. 2004). Other papers were less amused. In The Daily Standard, Stephen Schwartz declared: “The infamous snobs of the Swedish Academy. have returned to their habit of awarding the Nobel Prize for Literature to an unknown, undistinguished, leftist fanatic. This time they got a two-fer shot at destroying literary standards, since Jelinek's writings mainly verge on gross pornography.” This sentiment was echoed in The New Republic, where Ruth Franklin concluded that Jelinek's sexual and political notions are so “appalling” that they should have disqualified her from the prize. Normally, such put-downs of a radical feminist

  • WS/LT 351 the WOMAN AS WRITER and PERSPECTIVE in AUSTRIAN LITERATURE AFTER 1945 IES Abroad Vienna
    WS/LT 351 THE WOMAN AS WRITER AND PERSPECTIVE IN AUSTRIAN LITERATURE AFTER 1945 IES Abroad Vienna DESCRIPTION: Austrian literature over the centuries has been dominated by men – with few notable exceptions such as Hrosvit v. Gandersheim, Marie Frf. v. Ebner-Eschenbach, Paula v. Preradovic, Bertha v. Suttner. After WW II, there is an increase of female women writers not only in numbers, but in importance. Since 1945, female authors in Austria have successfully tried to break free from the limitations women were subject to in earlier times, so successful in fact that they have become leading figures in the shaping and defining of Austrian literature as a whole. This course tries to explain the phenomenon of women in Austrian literature since 1945. It comprises the full scope of female thought from the ever present ”Vergangenheitsbewältigung” to radical feminist views on society and social interaction in the seventies and eighties, and on to recent novels concerning new problems of the female in a changing society, such as raising children as single mothers, or dealing with migration in Europe. It will also deal with the problem of changing one’s sex, and check whether a male perspective on female life bears validity. CREDITS: 3 credits CONTACT HOURS: 45 hours LANGUAGE OF INSTRUCTION: English PREREQUISITES: None METHOD OF PRESENTATION: Lectures; group discussions. Several shorter texts will be read by the entire class and provide the basic structure and chronological frame to the course, one movie adaptations of a novel by Elfriede Jelinek will be shown and discussed. In addition, each student will be asked to read a novel and present it to the class.
