About this title

Synopsis

Faust fut pour limagination populaire lincarnation de lesprit aventurier de l�poque, � cheval sur le Moyen �ge et les Temps modernes. Dans son ouvrage, Robert Nye utilise des documents historiques qui attestent lexistence de Faust en jetant quelque lumi�re sur sa personnalit�, en y m�lant les �l�ments dune fiction romanesque hilarante. Louvrage se pr�sente comme le journal de Christophe Wagner, le jeune disciple?de l'alchimiste, qui nous entra�ne dans un �bouriffant p�lerinage � Rome � la suite dun Faust inattendu, ivrogne inv�t�r�, chevalier dindustrie d�bauch� et vicieux. Sont aussi du voyage H�l�ne de Troie, ma�tresse du mage, emmerdeuse moche, mythomane et mystique, ainsi que sept ravissantes jeunes filles pratiquant chacune une sp�cialit� �rotique diff�rente au b�n�fice de ce jeune paillard de Wagner. Traversent �galement le r�cit Henri VIII, Luther, Marguerite de Navarre, Calvin, etc. Passionnant comme un polar, joyeusement obsc�ne comme un Rabelais contemporain, le Faust de Robert Nye est lun de ces ouvrages de la lecture duquel on sort avec limpression d�tre plus intelligent.
