Soft coverSergio Pitol, translator, affirms that Firbank is "one of the most original, strange and joyful writers of the twentieth century". This work is a masterpiece. A colorful prose that secretes eroticism, perversion and joviality; a masterfully mysterious plot, characters that move in the twilight clarity of the strange and the absurd. A quote from Firbank: "If we are all part of God, then God must be, indeed, terrible." The translation, by Sergio Pitol, is impeccable and transparent.
