Description
The Revolt of the Angels (original title: La Révolte des Anges) is a satirical novel by Anatole France, published in 1914. The story is a witty and philosophical exploration of rebellion and enlightenment, using the framework of a celestial uprising to critique religious, political, and social norms.
The novel follows Arcade, a guardian angel who becomes disillusioned with the heavenly order and decides to join a rebellion against God. As he descends to Earth, Arcade gathers a group of fellow angels who share his desire for freedom and knowledge. Together, they plot to overthrow the divine regime, seeking to establish a new order based on reason and justice.
Through the narrative, France satirizes the dogmas of organized religion and the absurdities of blind faith, using the angels' revolt as a metaphor for intellectual and spiritual liberation. The novel is renowned for its humor, wit, and incisive commentary on human nature and the quest for truth.
