The End of Atlantis (1926) extends a rich tradition of French
literary fantasies redeploying the myth of Atlantis; it is a historical
melodrama, an adventure story and a heroic fantasy depicting the fall
of the great and marvelous Empire of Atlantis.
The novel is more sophisticated than most Atlantean fantasies. Its account
of the fall of Atlantis echoes that of the Roman Empire, and contains
an elaborate criticism of contemporary European society, whose own crisis
of degeneration is supposedly reflected therein. Because of this, the
book has not lost its relevance to the world of the 21st century.
