Leonora Carrington’s long-unavailable second novel, ‘The Stone Door’
| “[Carrington’s] work with its vibrant dehumanized animals, its mythic universality, and mysterious lucidity remains a marvel. She was and remains forever rad.” —Joy Williams, Book Post Leonora Carrington Introduction by Gabriel Weisz Carrington Afterword by Anna WatzThe Stone Door is an omen, an incantation, and an adventure story rolled into one. Built in layers like a puzzle box, it is the tale of two people, of love and the Zodiac and the Kabbalah, of Transylvania and Mesopotamia converging at the Caucasus, of a mad Hungarian King named Böles Kilary and of a woman’s discovery of an initiatory code that leads to a Cyclopean obstacle, to love, self, and awareness, to the great stone door of Kescke and beyond. Written at the end of World War II but not published until 1977 and long unavailable, The Stone Door is at once a celebration of the union of the surrealist painter Leonora Carrington and her husband, the Hungarian-born photographer Chiki Weisz, and an argument for the unification of the male and the female as a means of liberating the human race. “[The Stone Door] may send the surrealists among us into backflips.” —Kirkus Reviews The Stone Door is the September 2025 selection of the NYRB Classics Book Club. For three days only, The Stone Door is available at 25% off along with four other books by Leonora Carrington: |
