Synopses & Reviews
Jarry's novels are explorations of eroticism and metaphysics, memory and ennui, dream and everyday life. This volume completes the publication of his fiction in English, all of which is now available from Atlas Press and Exact Change.
Days and Nights recounts Jarry's military service, intercut with a nightlife of hallucination and drug abuse. Visits of Love describes an erotic quest that passes beyond death. Absolute Love continues that quest via a rewriting of the New Testament; Messalina through a reinterpretation of the legendary ancient Roman nymphomaniac.
