About this title

Synopsis

Readers are invited to function, in a sense, as tourists as the stories move through experiences of a terrestrial journey to East Germany, Pompeii, Tunisia, and Greece. These stories verge on the surreal, mythological invocations of Nordic legend, allegorical accounts of the artistic quest, and images of totalitarian injustice.

Review

"In this choice of short stories the reader is able to measure the range of Lucette Desvignes' literary gifts." (Prof. Jacqueline Sessa University Jean-Monnet (Saint- Etienne) "These stories demonstrate the vibrant diversity of Lucette Desvignes' artistry and complete a five volume collection of her short fiction." (Prof. Jerry Curtis The Ohio State University)"
