La Littérature de voyage à l'heure du numérique: Olivier Hodasava et Mathias Énard.

This article explores a few ways in which contemporary travel writing can engage with the digital world. It investigates different travelling narratives that allow for a dialogue between the digital and the print format: the blog 'Dreamlands, virtual travelogue' and its adaptation in print format (Éclats d'Amérique, Inculte, 2014) by Olivier Hodasava, as well as the novel Boussole (Actes Sud, 2015) by Mathias Énard. From Hodasava's Street View-inspired blog and travelogue to Énard's hyper-stratified prose mimicking the encyclopaedic ambition of the Internet, travel writing questions the porosity of the world, the text and the digital, by bringing the virtual and the real, immobility and movement, into play. In so doing, these works invite us to renew the critical tools we use to approach travel writing in the digital world. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
