Baby Story Time: Greenlight Staff

Incantatory and poetic, The Book of Monelle reads like the transcription of a lovelorn fever dream from an unknown time. Schwob's proto-surrealist fables provide a glimpse into the space where fantasy gives flight and reality misleads, like the Brothers Grimm in the wake of an absinthe binge. There are books that feel, somehow, inevitable. This is one of them.
