The Inferno eBook
SINOPSE
The narrator of The Inferno-ostensibly August Strindberg himself-has not had an easy recent past, and a move to Paris is not helping. As his mania overtakes his ability to function in the society of artists, writers, scientists and philosophers he'd like to be part of, he turns to more unconventional methods to help make sense of his world.
Written in diary form, The Inferno is a semi-autobiographical work that blends self-deprecating humour with a whirl of neurosis and attempted rationalisation. The novel, with a certain amount of exaggeration for literary effect, charts two years of Strindberg's life in the 1890s. Presented here is Claud Field's 1913 translation from the original French.
Perfect for readers who appreciate raw psychological exploration and the blurred lines between fiction and memoir, this haunting work offers an unflinching glimpse into the mind of one of Scandinavia's greatest literary figures. Strindberg's brutally honest portrayal of mental crisis, combined with his masterful prose, creates an intense and unforgettable reading experience that will resonate with fans of confessional literature and psychological realism.
