The English translation of Monsieur Venus (under review here) and a new French edition of this novel (also edited by Hawthorne and Constable) were published as companion volumes in 2004 by the Modern Language Association of America. The critics do not always agree on the degree of subversiveness of her novels but their studies have served to give Rachilde her rightful place as a central figure in the literary history of late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century France. In the last twenty years or so, Melanie Hawthorne, Janet Beizer, Maryline Lukacher, Diana Holmes, Dorothy Kelly, and Michael Finn, among others, have made substantial and original contributions to the study of Rachilde's literary work and world. New York: The Modern Language Association of America, 2004. Introduced and Annotated by Melanie Hawthorne and Liz Constable.

However, my personal enjoyment beyond the outright appreciation was kinda lacking. We are caught in traps of our own devising and we love with pure grace and we discover that we've changed too much to ever come back. Valente does no less than build a cosmos, a philosophy of living, of learning, and of loss of innocence on a grand scale. They all have their own concerns and takes on reality and it's truly fascinating to behold. from John, his immortal and monstrous wife, and a famous explorer on the outside. It's simple in the way I say it, but believe me, there's nothing simple going on inside the pages. They're Edenic and this magical land is pretty much Eden already.īut then we get a call to arms to save the Seat of the Holy Roman Empire against the Saracens and who raises the flag, along with all the innocent immortals who may or may not be angels? John Prester. However, I can point to the mythical land of medieval beasts that Prester John converts to Christianity, the events of the first book that make John their king, how he becomes immortal, loves, has a family, and how all these beasts just humor him good-naturedly. Again, as with the previous book, it's almost impossible to describe the events taking place here or giving real justice to its in-depth exploration of God, innocence, war, and love.

There's some intellectual heavy lifting here-Einstein is the main character, after all-but the concepts are articulated clearly, and the thrill of discovery is contagious.
