Armed with Madness (Penguin Modern Classics) ペーパーバック – 2001/6/7

4.0 5つ星のうち4.0 1個の評価

ARMED WITH MADNESS introduces a group of youthful but disillusioned characters who live a bohemian existence on a strange quest when an ancient chalice is found at the bottom of a well. A startling novel, ARMED WITH MADNESS introduces Scylla Tavemer, her lover Picus, her brother Felix, and their closely-knit circle of friends, all in the vigour of youth and overflowing with passionate intensity. The discovery of the chalice ignites a fury of conflicting emotion, and propels them on an adventure of mythic proportion -- a virtual re-enactment of the Grail Quest.

著者について

Mary Butts (1890-1937) grew up in Dorset. She began to write in her mid-20s and portions of her first novel, ASHE OF RINGS, appeared in 1919 in THE LITTLE REVIEW. ARMED WITH MADNESS is generally reckoned to be her masterpiece. It was followed by a sequel, DEATH OF FELICITY TAVENER. Butts lived a life of spectacular abandon in Paris throughout the 1920s and thereafter in the southwest of England.

A novel by the occultist Mary Butts. Set in country land near the sea, it seems to me to be written in surreal mode, with tensions created through the interplay of the male characters around the central though self-detached figure of Scylla Taverner. The book was considered as Mary Butts' masterpiece, and one of its main appeals seems to be in the depiction of life in the 1920s seen from an unusual and oblique angle. The novel might be described as one of subdued tensions. The characters are isolated from the outside world in their own backwater, which is occasionally visited by similarly isolated locals and outsider guests. The overall effect however is muted and restrained and it seems we might be reading a description of the impressions of the cool otherworld of Scylla Taverner's mind. I had expected something different, but even if this novel didn't appeal directly to me, it does reveal the sense of latency in the subconsciousness of society in the 1920s, when people were re-gathering their focus after the tribulations of the Great War.
