Miracle of the Rose by Jean Genet

One of the greatest achievements of modern literature. -Richard Howard

A major achievement . . . . Genet transforms experiences of degradation into spiri­tual exercises and hoodlums into bearers of the majesty of love. -Saturday Review

This book recreates for the reader Genet's magic world, one of dazzling beauty charged with novelty and excitement. -Bettina Knapp

Genet would have deserved international standing for this novel alone. . . . He succeeds to an amazing degree in creating poetry from the profoundest degradation. -The Times (London)

Jean Genet (1910-1986), poet, novelist, playwright, and political essayist, was one of the most significant French writers of the twentieth century. His work, much of it considered scandalous when it first appeared, is now placed among the classics of modern literature and has been translated and performed throughout the world.
