James Branch Cabell From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search James Branch Cabell James Branch Cabell photographed by Carl Van Vechten Born April 14, 1879 Richmond, Virginia Died Richmond, Virginia Occupation Author Genres Fantasy fiction James Branch Cabell , pronounced /ˈkæbəl/ (April 14, 1879 – May 5, 1958) was an American author of fantasy fiction and belles lettres . Cabell was well regarded by his contemporaries, including H. L. Mencken and Sinclair Lewis . His works were considered escapist and fit well in the culture of the 1920s, when his works were most popular. For Cabell, veracity was "the one unpardonable sin, not merely against art, but against human welfare." Interest in Cabell declined in the 1930s, a decline that has been attributed in part to his failure to move out of his fantasy niche. Alfred Kazin said that "Cabell and Hitler did not inhabit the same universe". Although escapist, Cabell's works are ironic and satirical. H. L. Mencken disputes Cabell's claim to romanticism, characterized him as "really the most aciduous of all the anti-romantics. His gaudy heroes... chase dragons precisely as stockbrockers play golf." Cabell saw art as an escape from life, but once the artist creates his ideal world, he finds that it is made up of the same elements that make the real one.

@import url(../../stepney.css); home SF book reviews Dani Zweig's Belated Reviews Dani Zweig's Belated Reviews : archive Belated Reviews #13: James Branch Cabell James Branch Cabell wrote over fifty books between the 1910s and the 1950s. Most of them tie into his ambitious fantasy cycle about Manuel the Redeemer, a thirteenth-century pigherd who rose to become a count, and his descendents. His books are ambitious, literate, imaginative, playful needless to say, most of them weren't selling very well. Luck came ironically disguised as the New York Society for the Suppression of Vice, which had him hailed into court on obscenity charges for his publication of "Jurgen", in 1919. (I don't believe "Jurgen" has been out of print since.) The resulting notoriety made Cabell a best-selling author for a while, and when it eventually died down, it left behind people who knew and appreciated Cabell's work. I'm going to confess straight off that I'm not a proper Cabellian: The true Cabellian has hunted down and read his obscure works as well as his better known ones. Aside from "Jurgen", I've only read the group of six books reprinted by Del Rey about twenty years ago. Cabell's best books are "Jurgen", "Figures of Earth", and "The Silver Stallion". (You should try one of them. They may be read in any order.) If you like those, try the other books in that set, "The High Place" (**), "The Cream of the Jest" (**+), "Something About Eve" (**), and "Domnei" (*). If you like *those*, you too can become a true Cabellian: If bookstores fail you, there's always the modern miracle of interlibrary loans.
