This volume is the eleventh of a series of twelve dedicated to Magre's works. Melusine(1941) mingles a number of mini-essays and prose-poems with a continuing first-person narrative that, although clearly fictitious and exceedingly rich in the fantastic, is proffered by an unnamed protagonist who is clearly an alter ego of the author.
M lusine might be Magre's swan song, and its delicate imaginative flourishes the last gasps of his prolific and fecund imagination. His revision of the classic legend of M lusine of Lusignan is ingenious and the visionary sequences depicting the protagonist's communications with nature are vividly effective, and demonstrate that Magre's poetic gifts had not waned.
