  • And Even Now

    Restored Classics to Go Edition

    by Max, Sir Beerbohm ...

An old fan fragment in a cupboard revives a moonlit scene in Normandy, where the narrator's fascination with a quarrel between M. Joumand and Mlle. Angélique becomes a meditation on how a tiny relic can spark a whole fiction, and how imitation, irony, and self-doubt shape the making of a writer. From ... Read more

    by Sir Max Beerbohm ...
