Roberto Calasso uses the life and age of Talleyrand as an entrance into a wide-ranging meditation on revolution, sacrifice, mythology, power, and the emergence of the modern world. Newly translated by Richard Dixon, The Ruin of Kasch moves through political history, literature, anthropology, and religious thought rather than following a conventional chronological argument. The result is a demanding, associative work for readers drawn to intellectual history and the hidden structures beneath modern political life.
