Kavan, Anna

SUMMARY

"[A] frost flower on a moonlit window, the delicate spell of a British recluse, extreme yin. Often compared to Kafka and De Quincey, Kavan wrote some 11 books....[T]his 1947 novel is my favorite....Its form is the nocturne--obsessive, submerged, a continuous whisper from the unconscious--and like all her work, it is an assertion of the icy triumph of Thanatos over Eros."Kavan, Anna is the author of 'Sleep Has His House' with ISBN 9780720611298 and ISBN 0720611296.
