Witch Grass

Raymond Queneau

3.9/5 ( ratings)

Seated in a Paris café, a man glimpses another man, a shadowy figure hurrying for the train: Who is he? he wonders, How does he live? And instantly the shadow comes to life, precipitating a series of comic run-ins among a range of disreputable and heartwarming characters living on the sleazy outskirts of the city of lights. Witch Grass is a philosophical farce, an epic comedy, a mesmerizing novel about the daily grind that is an enchantment itself.
