Informed by the work of the contemporary thinker Jacques Rancière, Egalitarian Strangeness explores a range of texts by modern and contemporary French writers in which embedded social inequality and the often conflictual relations across class boundaries feature. Yet the texts also throw up forms of cohabitation and levelling which contest such inequality.
