Across the Acheron by Monique Wittig
Wittig describes an extraordinary journey through the infernal regions towards a paradisaical land. Angels ride motorcycles, and cruelty and suffering are unknown on the other side of the Acheron, the legendary river of sorrows. Wittig reveals her poetic, sometimes humorous story in a vivid and highly individual style, creating a kaleidoscopic mixture of the mythological and the modern. Across The Acheron confirmed Wittig’s position as one of France’s most original and gifted writers of the 20th century.
