A unique collection of stories alive with intellectual and imaginative energy
Inspired by sources as diverse as Virgil, Dumas, and the daily newspaper, the 8 stories in Guy Davenport's Eclogues reflect the wide-ranging passions and curiosities of one of America's most original and agile writers. Taking the form of diary entries and pastoral poetry, and with allusions to Italo Calvino and the Greek gods, these stories are prime examples of Davenport's ingenuity and mastery of technique.
Eclogues includes philosophical explorations and portrayals of deeply human emotions with stories such as "The Trees of Lystra," Davenport's meditation on the intersection of early Christian doctrine and Greek myth, and "On Some Lines of Virgil," in which a group of teenagers experiments with sexuality during a lazy summer in Bordeaux. The author's playfulness and defiance of expectations make for a fascinating and surprising read.
