Paperback. Zustand: New. The authorâs strange and sinuous tour de force has become a classic of modernist and lesbian literature since its first publication in 1936. Set in Berlin, Paris, and Vienna during the decadent period between the two World Wars, Nightwood âbelongs to that small class of books that somehow reflect a time or an epoch.â Nightwood is the story of Robin Vote and those she destroys â" her husband the âBaron,â their child Guido, and the two women, Nora and Jenny, who love her; the whole is illuminated by the fantastic monologues of the renegade doctor Matthew OâConnor. Most striking of all is Barnesâs unparalleled stylistic innovation, which led T. S. Eliot to proclaim the book âso good a novel that only sensibilities train on poetry can wholly appreciate it.â 182p.
