Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spanning 1887 to a month before his death in 1910, The Journal of Jules Renard is a unique autobiographical masterpiece that, though celebrated abroad and cited as a principle influence by writers as varying as Somerset Maugham and Donald Barthelme, remains more of a cult object in the United States. Throughout his journal, Renard develops not only his artistic convictions but also his humanity as he reflects on the nineteenth-century French literary and art scene, and on the emergence of his position as an important novelist and playwright in that world. Through a mix of aphorisms and observations, short scenes, gossip, jokes, and meditations on life and art, Renard portrays the details of his personal life—his love interests, his position as a socialist mayor of Chitry, the suicide of his father—that often appear in his work. In recent years, the fragmented memoir has grown in popularity, and there’s been a resurgence of diary as an artistic form. Once again, Jean Paul Sartre’s assessment that “directly, or indirectly, Renard is at the origin of contemporary literature” rings true. In a new introduction, Sarah Manguso—whose groundbreaking nonfiction incorporates elements of diary and aphorism—both contextualizes and celebrates Renard’s seminal journal.

Book excerpt: A wry, observant masterpiece—one of the singular treasures of the French fin de siècle Written between the age of twenty-three and his death at age forty-six, Jules Renard’s Journal 1887–1910 is a triumph of introspection and wit. One of the most celebrated figures of Belle Époque Paris, Renard was also a prolific diarist whose private musings were first published in five volumes some fifteen years after his death. Acclaimed by everyone from Somerset Maugham to Samuel Beckett to Susan Sontag, the Journal has had a decisive influence on contemporary letters and was named one of the 100 Books of the Century by Le Monde. It is also a singularly funny work, full of aphorisms, jokes, and sly observations on some of literature’s most indelible characters. These selections, brought together by Julian Barnes and translated by Theo Cuffe, offer unparalleled and unfailingly entertaining glimpses of a bygone world. Moving from modish Parisian salons to the French countryside, where Renard served as a provincial mayor in the final years of his life, the Journal is a portrait of a society in flux and a playground for one of the era’s great prose styles. Here, Renard confirms his place among France’s most dazzlingly inventive writers.

Book excerpt: " Ne pas se tromper aux figures hautaines et silencieuses : ce sont des timides ", écrit Jules Renard parlant de lui. Comme tous les timides, il répugnait à se confier aux autres. Son Journal lui sert de confident, d'interlocuteur, de complice. C'est à la mémoire des feuillets qu'il remet ses pensées les plus secrètes et les lus contradictoires. Ardent dreyfusard, il écrit : " Je suis écoeuré à plein cœur, à cœur débordant, par la condamnation d'Emile Zola... " Mais il confesse ailleurs : " Nous sommes tous antijuifs. Quelques-uns parmi nous ont le courage ou la coquetterie de ne pas le laisser voir. " Il se répand en réflexions misogynes : " si jamais une femme me fait mourir, ce sera de rire " ; " Dès qu'on dit à une femme qu'elle est jolie, elle se croit de l'esprit " ; " La femme est un roseau dépensant. " Mais n'est-ce pas pour exorciser le chant des sirènes ? " Je les aime toutes. Je fais des folies pour elles. Je me ruine en rêves. " Anticlérical, antireligieux convaincu =, auteur de La bigote, au Journal il confie cependant : " J'ai l'esprit anticlérical et un cœur de moine. " Il avait une conscience amère, injuste et orgueilleuse, de ses limites, mais aussi de ses qualités, celles des grands écrivains - l'humour, l'ironie, la poésie : " Les ironistes, ces poètes scrupuleux, inquiets jusqu'à se déguiser. " Portrait d'une époque et d'un milieu, peinture des naturels du Morvan, et par-dessus tout portrait d'une âme poétique jusqu'à la souffrance, le Journal de Jules Renard est un chef-d'œuvre de la langue française et le témoignage d'un grand moraliste : " Je me fais une haute idée morale et littéraire de l'humour.
