Jabès's importance as a thinker, philosopher, and Jewish theologian cannot be overestimated, and his enigmatic style-combining aphorism, fictional dialogue, prose meditation, poetry, and other forms-holds special appeal for postmodern sensibilities. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In \u003ci\u003eThe Book of Margins, \u003c\/i\u003e his most critical as well as most accessible book, Jabès is again concerned with the questions that inform all of his work: the nature of writing, of silence, of God and the Book. Jabès considers the work of several of his contemporaries, including Georges Bataille, Maurice Blanchot, Roger Caillois, Paul Celan, Jacques Derrida, Michel Leiris, Emmanuel Lévinas, Pier Paolo Pasolini, and his translator, Rosmarie Waldrop. This book will be important reading for students of Jewish literature, French literature, and literature of the modern and postmodern ages. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Born in Cairo in 1912, Edmond Jabès lived in France from 1956 until his death in 1991.
