In 'The Story of André Cornélis,' Paul Bourget crafts a compelling narrative that delves into themes of identity, ambition, and the socio-political tensions of 19th-century France. Written with Bourget's characteristic psychological depth, the novel employs a realist style that elegantly intertwines the protagonist's personal struggles with broader societal issues. The book vividly portrays the conflicts between romantic ideals and harsh realities, reflecting the shifting cultural landscape of its time, and incorporates nuanced character development that invites readers to explore the complexities of human nature. Paul Bourget, a prominent figure in French literature, was known for his keen observations of contemporary society and psychology. His own experiences as a budding intellectual in post-Third Republic France informed his exploration of the inner lives of his characters. Bourget's background in philosophy and his connections with literary circles of his time inspired him to address the moral dilemmas and existential crises faced by individuals in a rapidly changing world, making 'The Story of André Cornélis' a significant work in his oeuvre. This novel is highly recommended for readers interested in psychological realism and the intricacies of human relationships. Bourget's insightful prose and relatable dilemmas resonate even today, providing valuable reflections on ambition and self-discovery. Engaging with 'The Story of André Cornélis' unlocks a compelling discourse on the human condition, making it a must-read for literary enthusiasts.

    The narrator of Hogg is a Huck Finn–like youngster caught in society’s most sinister seams—but unlike Huck, he passes no moral judgments on the violence he takes part in . . .Hogg is the story of a man—a depraved trucker named Franklin Hargus, whom the people he works for call Hogg—and of the nameless boy who tells the story of three days of unspeakable sexual violence and devastation, which, together, they initiate in a small seaside American city in the middle of the last century. Hogg is a towering brute who makes his living as a rapist for hire. By the end of a series of vicious attacks, kidnappings, and mass murders, the reader will wonder who is more corrupt: the man or the boy.   Samuel R. Delany completed his first draft of Hogg within a day, if not within hours, of the 1969 Stonewall Riots in New York City and revised it over the next four years, though it was not released until 1995.
