Description
The Ghost of Monsieur Scarron begins in a small bookbinder’s shop on a modest Paris street, but inexorably expands to encompass a tumultuous affair, growing social unrest, and the conflicts between a legal system based on oppressive order and a society about to undergo harsh changes. With its domestic drama set against a larger political and historical backdrop, The Ghost of Monsieur Scarron is considered by some critics and readers to be the most intricately layered and fully realized book of Lewis’s long career.
Originally published in 1959, The Ghost of Monsieur Scarron has remained in print almost continuously ever since.
