Norman Douglas’s novels are characterized by his sardonic wit and trenchant satire and, like his travel books, are distinguished by his evocative descriptions of the local. In They Went, published in 1921 and set in a mythic city in Brittany during the late Roman era, Douglas presents an allegory of goodness pitted against beauty.
