Pierre Senges in 2010

Pierre Senges (born 1968, Romans-sur-Isère) is a French writer.[1] His work includes nineteen books, numerous essays published in literary journals, and over seventy plays for radio.[2]

His books are sometimes noted for having a baroque prose style.[3] They frequently combine erudition, intertextuality, and invention (Fragments of Lichtenberg, The Major Refutation) or play on the relation between historically true and fictional elements (Les carnets de Gordon McGuffin and Essais fragiles d’aplomb).[4] Several of Senges's books and essays have been translated and published in English, including Fragments of Lichtenberg, Ahab (Sequels), The Major Refutation, Geometry in the Dust, and Studies of Silhouettes.

Senges' radio plays (fictions radiophoniques) have been produced by France Culture and France Inter.[5][6] He has been the recipient of the following prizes: the Prix Wepler,[7] the Prix SACD Nouveau Talent Radio in 2007,[8] the Grand prix de la fiction radiophonique de la SGDL in 2008,[9] the Prix du deuxième roman,[10] the Prix Rhône-Alpes,[11] and the Prix meilleure page 111.[12]
