Angels & Insects: Two Novellas
Angels & Insects: Two Novellas
The author of Possession returns to the territory of her bestselling novel in two breathtaking fictions that explore the social and psychic landscape of Victorian England. Set in a proper country house with undercurrents of brutality and at a seance where historical figures yearn for one another, these works remind us of Byatt's powers.
In these two "astonishing" novellas (The New Yorker), the Booker Prize-winning author of Possession returns to the landscape of Victorian England, where science and spiritualism are popular manias, and domestic decorum coexists with brutality and perversion.
"At once quirky and deep, brimming with generosity, imagination, and intelligence." --The New Yorker "delicate and confidently ironic.... Byatt perfectly blends laughter and sympathy [with] extraordinary sensuality" --San Francisco Examiner
