De Vienne Blanc,Lucie Le Gibet - Excerpts From La Fin De Satan: By Victo CD

Victor Hugo stands as one of the giants of French literature. Though his novels The Hunchback of Notre Dame and Les Miserables are his most famous works, Hugo also wrote in many other genres. Featured here is the religious epic The End of Satan, which he never finished. It was published after his death. Lucie de Vienne Blanc and Henri Barras recite portions of the second book of the End of Satan-Le Gibet, which tells the story of Jesus's life and death, and focuses on the evil nature of human beings. De Vienne Blanc and Barras selected excerpts that demonstrate the mastery, humanity, and the metaphysical impulse of one of France's greatest writers.
