«Tempête» is a collection of two short novels by J. M. G. Le Clézio, published by Gallimard in paperback (272 pages, in French).
The work brings together two contemporary short novels: one is set on the island of Udo, in the Sea of Japan (East Sea for Koreans), and the other in Paris and elsewhere. Le Clézio notes that «novella» designates a long narrative that unites places, action and tone, with Joseph Conrad as a model.
J. M. G. Le Clézio received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2008.
