P opular French author, Daniel Pennac is best known for his Malaussène saga 1, a fictional universe that bath dis torts and replicates the reality of contemporary French society. Chaotic and exaggerated, it comprises caricatures ofindividuals and groups from all walks of life who interact in a one-dimensional, comic book style. Pennac's characters internet in a microcosm of French society in which social hierarchy and cultural polarization preclude the possibility of unbiased communication. The constant tension between people from opposing socio-cultural backgrounds, and their conflicting ideologies, gives rise to complicated intrigues whose unraveling provides Pennac's tales with structure and suspense. Pennac 's talent for capturing the nuances in ail forms of linguistic exchange, and subsequently undermining them by means of narrative as ides or sarcastic repJies, easily tends itself to a sociological reading, and in particular, a reading based on the social philosophy of Pierre Bourdieu. Bourdieu's deconstruction of social space is especially pertinent in Penn ac 's fiction because it provides an economically grounded analysis of the conditions of literary and oral production and reception. Tt examines the manner in which speakers and writers tailor their linguistic product to a certain market2 in order to maximize profit (i.e. fame and money).
