Anatole France (1844 - 1924) was a French poet, journalist, and novelist who wrote several best sellers. The Revolt of the Angels is a mischievous take on the theology of modern society; it chronicles the thoughts of Arcade, a lowly guardian angel, as he discovers the ugly truths of his divine master in the library of his human charge. As Maurice, the young man abandoned by Arcade, struggles to get his guardian back, one gets a view of a wide variety of the author’s artistic personalities, most of whom are fallen angels. The Revolt of the Angels is a clever and unconventional comedy with profound views on politics, religion, and human nature.

The book is brilliant and philosophically fascinating. Especially the ending brings everything together. That said, the narrator’s forced French accents sometimes don’t do justice to the depth of the conversations. Worth the listen but hopefully a better narration will come about.

Brilliant story

why that fake french accent? It is so irritating, humiliating, racist and stupid that take out all interest in the story. It made me so sad.
