The Scorpion God
Original title: El dios Escorpión
Synopsis
The three short novels gathered in this volume under this title reveal a common technique in William Golding: the careful reconstruction or plausible conjecture of the past are sometimes relativized by the paradox that outlines an intentional anachronism or an impossible event, perhaps to emphasize that the historical distance has no other purpose but to facilitate the deployment of the symbolic and moral dimensions of the fable.
