Approaching Disappearance explores the question of disappearance in the critical work of Maurice Blanchot, one of the most influential figures of twentieth-century French literature, and then turns to five narratives that offer a unique reflection on the threat of disappearance and the demands of literature-works by Franz Kafka, Jorge Luis Borges, Louis-René Des Forêts, and Nathalie Sarraute.
