En 'Alexis o el tratado del inútil combate', Marguerite Yourcenar, autora de 'Memorias de Adriano', presenta una novela innovadora y polémica que explora el amor y la sexualidad. La obra, aclamada por la crítica, se centra en la larga carta de Alexis a su esposa, donde desmenuza su doloroso conflicto interno. Publicada en 1929, la novela aborda un tema tabú en un contexto de transformación histórica y social, donde Alexis busca poner fin al engaño y comenzar una nueva vida. La novela explora la dificultad de vivir y la aún mayor dificultad de explicar la propia vida.
