Intertextual Weaving in the Work of Linda Le: Imagining the Ideal Reader uncovers the primary textual relationship that Linda Le (1963- ), the most prolific Francophone author of the Vietnamese diaspora, fosters with a literary precursor of Austrian descent: the feminist writer-in-exile, Ingeborg Bachmann (1926-1973). This study offers an overdue exploration of the notably European roots of Le's writerly formation. It traces an unexamined feminist import in her work to a sixteen-year inter- and intra-textual engagement with Bachmann and positions the latter as an imagined ideal reader of Le's oeuvre. Intertextual analyses of Bachmann's post-war novel, Malina, with Le's literary essays, early fiction, and trilogy, reveal that to overcome the challenges of writing in exile Le adopts an alternative literary fore-bear of the European tradition.
