EMMANUEL RO\u00cfDES<\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Translated by David Connolly<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Ro\u00efdes\u2019 irreverent, witty and delightful novel tells the story of Joan who, according to a popular medieval legend, ascended to the Papal Throne as Pope John VIII. The truth of the legend is of little importance as the book is far more than a historical novel and, in fact, parodies the popular historical romances of the time. In Joan, Ro\u00efdes has created one of the most remarkable characters in modern Greek literature and in so doing has assured his place as one of its classic authors.<\/p>\n
