Voyage Around My Room: Selected Works of Xavier de Maistre

Xavier de Maistre
0/5 ( ratings)
In 1790, while serving in the Piedmontese army, the French aristocrat Xavier de Maistre was sentenced to house arrest for forty-two days, for dueling. The result was a discursive, mischievous memoir, his classic Voyage Around My Room. De Maistre's literary output began with his Voyage and ended with its sequel, Nocturnal Expedition Around My Room , with a few shorter pieces in between. In addition to the Voyage and Expedition, this Selected Works includes the compelling dialogue "The Leper of the City of Aosta" and a "Preface" by Xavier's better-known older brother, the reactionary Joseph de Maistre.
