Patricia Duncker's astonishing debut novel is a love story, a mystery and a quest. A gripping tale of a mad writer, the glamorous, scandalous Paul Michel, enfant terrible of French letters, and of a student who sets out to find him. Passionate and controversial, 'Hallucinating Foucault' crosses the frontiers of gender and sexuality, and explores the limits of madness and desire.
Winner of The Dillons First Fiction Award.
