In the early 2020s, a considerable set of manuscripts and drafts by Louis-Ferdinand Céline (1894-1961) was found. Several unpublished texts or considered lost have called into question our vision of the work as a whole. These texts in fact question the continuity of this narrative work, which, until then, did not seem to pose a problem. The manuscripts found show that Céline, around 1934, had ventured in other directions, notably stylistic. In his search for ever more inventive writing, he followed new paths, some of which were abandoned, and others integrated into his work.
