Introduction
Jurgen: A Comedy of Justice is a 1919 fantasy book by James Branch Cabell, which gained fame (notoriety, in the view of some) shortly after its publication. The eponymous hero, who considers himself a "monstrous clever fellow", embarks on a journey thru ever more fantastic realms, even to hell and heaven. Everywhere he goes, he winds up seducing the local women, even the Devil's wife.
