Not translated to English until 1959, by Roger Shattuck (of course, du Maurier undoubtedly read French). Many similarities, though Daumal\u2019s story is almost wholly allegorical.\u00a0<!--more--><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>I\u2019m ashamed to admit that before this I\u2019d never read Ren\u00e9 Daumal\u2019s Simplist classic\u2014I knew it mainly as one of the inspirations for\u00a0Jodorowsky\u2019s Surrealist film\u00a0<em>The Holy Mountain<\/em>. (Which, in turn, I hadn\u2019t seen since college.) If I\u2019m honest, I\u2019d deliberately avoided <em>Analogue<\/em>. I was afraid the book would be sort of\u00a0like Edwin Abbott\u2019s <em>Flatland<\/em>, from 1884: didactic, allegorical, perhaps mathematical. In any case, I told myself to grow up and get over the trauma of trigonometry and quickly ordered a copy of the English translation. (My French is a lot worse than du Maurier\u2019s.)\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Daumal was heavily involved in avant-garde poetry and spiritualist circles of his day. He was also a practitioner of pataphysics, Alfred Jarry\u2019s absurdist scientific discipline. (Shattuck was a scholar of the movement.)<\/p>\n<p>In <em>Analogue<\/em>,\u00a0which tells of a journey up a mountain whose \u201csummit must be inaccessible, but its base accessible to human beings as nature made them,\u201d the allegorical landscape, with its riddles and internal logics and gnomic sages, is akin to\u00a0<em>Alice in Wonderland<\/em>\u2014or, perhaps,\u00a0<em>The Phantom Tollbooth\u00a0<\/em>or\u00a0<em>The Little Prince<\/em>. There\u2019s the same sense of unfamiliarity, and the same necessary release of preconception. In this case, the philosophical striving is matched with the literal practice of mountaineering. And the prose is clearly that\u00a0of a poet, as well as a philosopher.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Daumal\u00a0died young, of tuberculosis, before completing\u00a0<em>Mount Analogue.\u00a0<\/em>As a result, the novel chronicles only the climb to the top of a mountain, and not the narrator\u2019s descent.\u00a0\u201cIf you slip or have a minor fall, don\u2019t allow yourself an instant\u2019s pause,\u201d he writes:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Find your pace again the moment you get up. In your mind take careful note of the circumstances of your fall, but don\u2019t let your body linger over what happened. The body constantly tries to draw attention to itself by its shiverings, its breathlessness, its palpitations, its shudders and sweats and cramps; but it reacts quickly to any scorn and indifference in its master. Once it senses that he is not taken in by its jeremiads, once it understands that it will inspire no pity for it that way, then it comes into line and obediently accomplishes its task.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><em>Sadie Stein is contributing editor of <\/em>The Paris Review<em>, and the <\/em>Daily<em>\u2019 s correspondent.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After I wrote about Daphne du Maurier\u2019s \u201cMonte Verit\u00e0\u201d\u00a0in September, a kind reader sent me a note: I wonder if du Maurier knew Daumal\u2019s\u00a0Mount Analogue: A Novel of Symbolically Authentic Non-Euclidean Adventures in Mountain Climbing, also 1952 (in French).
