Publisher Description: This volume combines Paul Willems' 1990 novella, "The Drowned Land," a haunting and magic transformation of the Atlantis legend, and his most recent play, "La Vita Breve," which launches the reader upon a voyage into the dark night of the soul. Both novella and play explore the frontiers of dream and reality, investigating the relationship of guilt and innocence, memory and desire. |
