"Balthazar" is the second novel in Lawrence Durrell's "Alexandria Quartet." In this installment, the author presents Dr. Balthazar's version of the central events of the series, especially the story of Justine and Pursewarden's suicide. Through letters and memories, a different and more dramatic perspective of the events narrated in "Justine" is revealed, exploring the mystery and complexities of human relationships in the exotic setting of Alexandria. This edition includes restored fragments that reflect the author's revision and possible suppressions of Franco's censorship.
Lawrence George Durrell was an expatriate British novelist, poet, dramatist, and travel writer. He was the eldest brother of naturalist and writer Gerald Durrell.
