Pegram Harrison, Marguerite Yourcenar
Pegram Harrison on Marguerite Yourcenar, Two Lives and a Dream | Marguerite Yourcenar, is immortal in the Francophone world and in America . . .
Some months ago I became a British citizen. This wasn’t such a stretch for a native of the States, but it put me in mind of other transplanted people and I have been rereading some old favourites to celebrate. Perversely, the most resonant thing I’ve read isn’t British at all: a tale written in French by a Belgian who became American and settled on an island near my family’s summer home in the northern state of Maine. It is a quiet piece of literary grisaille called Un homme obscur, ‘An Obscure Man’.
