Description

Lafcadio's Adventures is a novel written by French author Andre Gide. The book tells the story of Lafcadio Wluiki, a young man who is half-Asian and half-European. Lafcadio is a restless and curious individual who embarks on a journey of self-discovery, traveling from France to Tunisia, and then to Algeria. Along the way, he meets a variety of characters, including a beautiful dancer, a wealthy businessman, and a group of revolutionaries. As Lafcadio explores different cultures and ways of life, he begins to question his own identity and place in the world. The novel is a complex exploration of identity, race, and colonialism, and is considered one of Gide's most important works.1925. French writer, humanist, and moralist who received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1947. Gide's search for self, the underlying theme of his several works, remained essentially religious. Throughout his career Gide used his writings to examine moral questions. He is as well known for his influence as a moralist and a thinker as for his contributions to literature. Lafcadio Wluiki is one of the original creations in modern fiction. Gide's preoccupation with the gratuitous action, the unmotivated crime-it has a place in more than one of his books-here receives its most extended treatment, and Lafcadio is the instrument. With characteristic irony, Gide leads the police to a solution wherein the wrong man is apprehended and punished for the crime, while the charmingly perverse Lafcadio goes free. The action passes with cinematographic speed, chiefly in the capitals of Europe. The actors, other than Lafcadio, are noblemen, saints, adventurers and pickpockets.
