A Voyage to the Island of the Articoles 1929 hc engravings Edward Carrick.

Review


"Maurois is wonderfully witty about the physical debilitation that results from having one's substance fed upon for the sake of illusory art."—Wall Street Journal

"A Voyage to the Island of the Articoles has been nicely translated by Charlotte de Koch.... a curious little work, part adventure narrative, part cod anthropology...with a little love story thrown in...the book has the easy elegance one associates with Maurois."—Times Literary Supplement
