Or at least where artists are the celebrities and sort of priests. Apparently 1928 was too early for the concept of a female artist which leads to certain disturbing qualities. The gulliver-esque satire is ok and the characters likable enough. It did confuse me a bit, the artists are obsessed with people getting in touch with their feelings... is that an art thing? It seemed an odd thing to focus on. Anyway i deducted a star simply because its a bit too slight. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
"Dangerous, charming, and funny, this elegant miniature rediscovery will delight even brilliant minds."--Simon Van Booy André Maurois' novella, published in the same year as Margaret Mead'sComing of Age in Samoa, is about a couple who become shipwrecked on an uncharted South Seas Island and discover a race of literary zealots for whom every subject and feeling needs to be expressed as a form of literary art. As explained by Alberto Manguel, "An Articole will publish not only hisIntimate Journal, but also hisJournal of My Intimate Journal; and his wife will publishMy Husband's Journal of His Intimate Journal."
