I agree with you on both Gide, who in any rendering, is morally repugnant and du Gard who is vastly underrated. Buck and Hesse don’t hold up (likely never did). I look forward to sampling Jenson who I haven’t encountered.
Excellent. I was reading a biography of Churchill last night for next week's piece. It said Churchill was not the worst writer to win the Nobel Prize. How could that be with pearl S. Buck on the list! Thanks for sharing your thoughts
I found my brother bleeding and hiding in his bed, after meeting with a rapist bugger in our isolated local woodland. I shan't read Gide. The pi use of his torn, bleeding body comes too readily to mind 70 years later. I have downloaded your book instead.
