Prometheus Misbound is a novel by French writer André Gide, published in 1899. The work is a modern reinterpretation of the myth of Prometheus, set in Paris in the late 19th century. In this version, Prometheus travels from the Caucasus to Paris, where he encounters various characters and situations that lead him to reflect on freedom, morality, and the human condition. The novel is a satire of bourgeois society and a critique of social conventions.
André Paul Guillaume Gide was a French author whose writing spanned a wide variety of styles and topics. He was awarded the 1947 Nobel Prize in Literature. Gide's career ranged from his beginnings in the symbolist movement to criticising imperialism between the two World Wars. Author of more than 50 books, he was described in his New York Times obituary as "France's greatest contemporary man of letters" and "judged the greatest French writer of this century by the literary cognoscenti."
