Is there more than one history of the world? This is the question Pierce Moffett is seeking to answer when, jilted and newly jobless, he gets off a bus by chance in the Faraway Hills and steps unawares into a story that has been awaiting him there. His search will bring him into contact with Rosie Rasmussen, another seeker marked by loss. And it will lead them both on a path toward the longed-for country of our oldest dreams and most unanswerable desires, toward a magnificent discovery.©1987 John Crowley (P)2007 Blackstone Audio Inc.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A dizzying experience, achieved with unerring security of technique." (New York Times Book Review)
"Aegypt is a must....Crowley [is] an original moralist of the same giddy heights occupied by the likes of Thomas Mann and Robertson Davies." (San Francisco Chronicle)
"Affecting, cerebral, surprising and delightful, this extraordinary philosophical romance suggests an unlikely but thriving marriage between a writer like Anne Tyler and one such as Jorge Luis Borges." (Publishers Weekly)

Pierce Moffat is a man who lives in one reality while experiencing another. As he reviews his life he realizes that this “feeling” he inhabits has become his central focus. He begins to see that every event and action of his life has been leading him toward this realization. He looks to the horizon and the Far Away Hills, a mystical landscape on the border lands of the two realities. He examines his feeling of time in contrast to his perception of it. He senses a hidden story of the world and wonders how he might uncover it. Gradually he learns to accept and to submit to the flow events and trusts that he will be exactly where he needs to be in order to manifest this perplexing experience. We learn about the writer Fellowes Kraft a man to whom Pierce’s destiny is manifestly bound and who through whom we are introduced to the remarkable Giordano Bruno and the wonderful metaphysician Dr Dee. Then there are the women in Pierce’s life who somehow hold the key to unraveling Pierce’s sense of things. This book is categorized as “Fantasy”, but this is misleading for Aeygpt is really an allegory about an experience of reality that might be called “Intuitive”. This is a tradition with a long pedigree, one that has operated alongside all the mainstream religious belief systems while remaining largely hidden. We might find a sense of this in Gnosticism, Hermeticism, and in the Rosicrucian traditions to name but a few. There are some difficulties with this novel and the Audio production. Aeygpt is the first in a four book cycle, and therefore the spot on which this remarkable and highly talented writer has laid a detailed foundation, be patient as the form does eventually begin to take shape. Also, the writer is the narrator and his style does take a little getting used to. Finally, this book is a wonderful gift to those whose seek to raise their sight beyond the accepted truths. Persevere and you will be astonished.

Astonishing!

A staggeringly beautiful book. It is complex, and an ability to accept a blurred understanding of the storyline is an asset.

Crowley's narration feels rushed at first, but give it an hour or two; it ended up feeling perfect to me, and now I doubt if I another could have read it.

One of the most amazing works in English

John Crowley is one of the great authors of our time. Aegypt is a complex and enlightened work displaying his mastery of historical fiction and magical realism, taking the reader on a journey spanning the ages and arriving at personal discovery of the stories we create within our own histories.

A great reading of one of the modern classics

I remember the first half an hour or so just confused me, as I was expecting something else, or at least was not used to this form. Once I had the flow I started again and wow. The worst thing about this was having to stop every couple hours or so to, you know, be present. To be honest, I've heard better "readers" but it is quite something to have an author take on that role. Beautiful, absolutely.
