Boris the Potato Child by Anne Simon

Boris the Potato Child by Anne Simon

This final book in Anne Simon's 'Tales of Marylene' trilogy (after The Song of Aglaia and Empress Cixtisis), Boris the Potato Child delivers a bitter critique of our consumerist impulses and abuses. Mixing literature and pop culture (such as mashing Simone de Beauvoir with the Beatles), Simon has created in Marylene a world as abundant in visual imagination as Oz or Narnia but crafted with a Swiftian pen that's mightier than any man's sword.

From 1992 through 2011, Anne Simon taught Medieval and Early Modern German Literature and Culture at the University of Bristol. She is currently a Lecturer in German at the University of London's Institute of Germanic and Romance Studies. Nuremberg from the Middle Ages to the Present; Travel Literature from the Middle Ages to the Present; hagiography; and the link between text and image are among her key academic topics.
