«Les Geòrgiques» is the novel by Claude Simon published by Edicions 62 in paperback, 320 pages, in Catalan.
It interweaves three conflicts: the French Revolution, the Spanish Civil War and the Second World War. A Jacobin general writes letters from the front with instructions about his estate; the narrative jumps between eras and shows the brutality of war from different perspectives, including that of a young English writer and the French defeat of 1940.
This Catalan edition, translated by Víctor Compta, is part of the collection «Les millors obres de la literatura universal. Segle XX» (no. 35).
For readers of literary and experimental fiction, interested in 20th-century war narrative and the work of Nobel Prize winner Claude Simon.
Claude Eugène Henri Simon was a French novelist and recipient of the 1985 Nobel Prize in Literature.
