Note(s) : "Lust, religious zeal, and heartache come together in this provocative novel about
two infatuations, one between a man and his young lover in the late 20th century and
another between a 15th-century maiden and Jesus Christ. Margery Kempe is a tale of
romantic obsession. It chronicles two relationships which take place in disparate
worlds, separated by five centuries. The failed saint Margery Kempe lived in the fifteenth
century, when she wrote what is believed to be the first autobiography. In Robert
Glück's Margery Kempe, the author's love for a young man, L., frames the story of
Kempe's mythical sexual desire and emotional passion for Jesus"
