<h1>Claude Simon</h1>
<p style="margin-top:60px;">Lastly I want to mention Claude Simon's Le Jardin des Plantes, and a comment I saw from <a class="external" href="douban.com">Douban</a>. "Read half of it and discarded the book, such a pain. This is not only a novel but a visual work. It's a book not for reading but for looking." Out of curiosity I bought a used copy from <a class="external"href="kongfuzi.com">Kongfuzi</a>, a website specializing in second hand books, since there were not any more new editions.</p>

<p>Le Jardin des Plantes housed hundreds of kinds of minerals, plants, and animals. People walking on its path observes different view each day. The autobiographical fiction tried to fuse daily lived experiences across the world in this century.</p>
<p>This description reminds me of Walter Benjamin's Arcade Project, which was few decades prior to Le Jardin des Plantes. Benjamin desbribed a kind of people, the "flâneur", who were both participants and observers of society. The arcade was referring to the shopping arcade in the 19th century, an architectural establishement made possible by steel and glass. </p>
