Abstract
Georges Perec wrote novels as well as of non-fictional texts, which are precisely the object of this study. Starting from the notion of infra-ordinary conceived as the attentive observation of « what happens every day and repeats every day, what is banal, daily, evident, common, ordinary, infraordinary, background noise, habitual », this article analyses Perec’s critical texts in order to bring out the genealogy of what will become his draft for a narrative theory. By following the ideas developed in his non-fictional writings, the attention given to the details in reality reveals itself as a constant theme that will become a literary theory that combines Perec’s practice and views on literature.
