Château d'Argol
of Julien Gracq, Louise Varèse (Translation)
Description
An isolated castle stands in a wild, desolate landscape, surrounded by dark woods. Its new owner, a rich, dissolute young man, has invited his best friend to stay. When he arrives, he brings with him a radiant, seductive and strangely detached young woman. She, in turn, will bring death and destruction to the Château d'Argol. With its opulent, atmospheric descriptions of a savage, surreal Breton landscape and its exquisite sense of foreboding, Château d'Argol is a work of beauty and terror.Pushkin Collection editions feature a spare, elegant series style and superior, durable components.
