Jurgen

Selected by Neil Gaiman and produced under his audiobook label, Jurgen by James Branch Cabell is a renowned work of satirical fantasy that gained notoriety in the early 20th century for its controversial content. The novel follows a middle-aged man’s journey through fantastical realms, where he encounters mythic and fictional characters, including the Devil’s wife.
