A book-shifter consisting of two novels by Régis Messac, a famous French essayist, poet and translator, a member of the Resistance who died in a German concentration camp.
The novel "Jesinanepsi" continues the tradition of post-apocalyptic dystopias. But if the heroes of the classic story about the end of the world do everything to survive, here the main protagonist (or even anti-hero) - who miraculously survived the dispersal of deadly gas, which destroyed almost the entire population of the Earth during World War II - is passive and irresponsible. He watches with detachment and indifference the degeneration of the handful of children who survived with him and who are building their primitive society. Translator In his last work "Cretinodolie" Messac turns to the theme of distant exotic travel and scientific discoveries, but here he reveals it in his own way. The expedition discovers on an island lost in the Pacific Ocean, a population of cretins - degenerate humanoid creatures whose development has stopped at the level of the Stone Age. The narrative is permeated with deep despair and disappointment in the human race: how can you love Man and believe in Man after what he has done and continues to do?
