Description
Stranded: En Rade is a novel that pushes the boundaries of the form, marked by its characteristic black humour. Published in 1890, it follows Jacques Marles as he flees Paris for the countryside, hoping to escape the financial storms and find peace.
However, Jacques soon discovers that modern city life cannot be escaped so easily. Stuck with his sick wife, Louise, in an abandoned château, he is forced to confront his increasingly disturbing dreams and the problems of urban life head-on.
This innovative work explores the irrational world of unconscious desire, producing a series of unforgettable images that are both unsettling and thought-provoking.
