By alluding to the writing of his 1990 novel  Voyage de noces  in the course of the narration of 1997  Dora Bruder , author Patrick Modiano invites an examination of the connections between these two works. This paper demonstrates how  Voyage de noces  and  Dora Bruder , when studied together as a sort of diptych, are informed by what commentators have described as Modiano's simultaneous preoccupations with the expression of absence and loss, on the one hand, and with the use of writing to compensate for these, on the other. Specifically, a formal and thematic relationship between these two texts is shaped first by a movement from origins to loss, as developed in  Voyage de noces , and then by an inverse movement from loss to recovery as outlined in  Dora Bruder . However, just as the fullness of being that typically characterizes the idealized version of origins—here, meaningful parental presence and a sense of personal identity—is always already deflated by the recognition that this fullness is not a given but rather remains to be realized, absolute recovery, too, is impossible
