Synopsis:
Published in 1922 and modeled on Fenelon's seventeenth-century epic of the same name, Aragon's work parodies its heroic models, didacticism, psychological stability, and descriptive and narrative balance.
Review:
Aragon’s farce is a funhouse of double-think and mirror readings; the wise reader enters with disbelief well suspended and a taste for the game -- New York Times Book Review
Most enjoyable reading, accompanied by an excellent introduction and helpful notes. -- Library Journal
