Corydon by
André Gide(
Book
)
233 editions published between 1911 and 2015 in 9 languages and held by 1,981 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Considered by Gide to be the most important of his books, this slim, exquisitely crafted volume consists of four dialogues on the subject of homosexuality and its place in society. Published anonymously in bits and pieces between 1911 and 1920, Corydon first appeared in a signed, commercial edition in France in 1924 and in the United States in 1950, the year before Gide's death. In spirited dialogue with his bigoted, boorish interviewer, Corydon marshals an erudite range of evidence from naturalists, historians, poets, and philosophers to support his contention that homosexuality has pervaded the most culturally and artistically advanced civilizations. The evidence, Corydon suggests, points to heterosexuality as a socially constructed union, while the more fundamental, natural relation is the homosexual one

J'espère, après avoir exprimé sur cette terre tout ce qui attendait en moi, satisfait, mourir complètement désespéré."

"Gide wrote Fruits of the Earth in 1897, when he was suffering from tuberculosis. It is a hymn to the pleasures of life that Gide came so near to losing: travel, touch, hearing, smell, sight and, more than anything, taste. In this paean to the senses, Gide advocates the rejection of banal preconceptions and moral rules, in order to taste life and the world's joys at their fullest."--Back cover

""Il m'est doux de penser qu'après moi, grâce à moi, les hommes se reconnaîtront plus heureux, meilleurs et plus libres." Ce Thésée, vieux et sage, calme enfin devant son destin, n'est-ce pas un peu André Gide, arrivé à l'heure du bilan? Thésée a été audacieux, aventureux pour le bien des hommes. Il a échappé aux pièges du Labyrinthe. Il a fondé Athènes, capitale de l'esprit. Et surtout, il est toujours demeuré clairvoyant

Return from the U.S.S.R by
André Gide(
Book
)
93 editions published between 1932 and 2013 in 6 languages and held by 992 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
During the 1930s, Gide briefly became a communist, or more precisely, a fellow traveller (he never formally joined the Communist Party). As a distinguished writer sympathising with the cause of communism, he was invited to tour the Soviet Union as a guest of the Soviet Union of writers. The tour disillusioned him and he subsequently became quite critical of Soviet Communism. This criticism of Communism caused him to lose socialist friends, especially when he made a clean break with it in this book Return From The USSR first published in the 1930's
