Time Out
The classic tale of satanism and sexual obsession in nineteenth-century Paris, in an attractive new edition. The novel's enervated anti-hero, Durtal, is writing a book about Gilles de Rais, child-murderer and comerade in arms of Joan of Arc. When he's not swotting up on alchemy, visiting Rais' ruined clastle and fantasizing about a mystery woman, he is pondering Catholicism with his friends. But his sexual adventures and historical studies mesh when he's invited to witness a black mass.
