Abstract
"Sérotonine, Michel Houellebecq’s latest novel, can be read as the account of a case of identity dissolution, at both an individual and a collective level, the two levels intersecting each other. The author proposes the reader a chaotic trajectory through the despondency-ridden universe of the narrating character, who travels across a given geographic, cultural, social, professional space representative of today’s France, in keeping with the free will of a whimsical memory and a type of writing that follows a continual chronological and emotional disruption. Our analytic approach lies at the crossroads of self hermeneutics and group psychology, while intending to show how the field of literary imagination and imagery capitalizes on the present-day world’s insecurity identity-wise."
