"Jurgen: A Comedy of Justice" by James Branch Cabell is a fantasy novel published in 1919. This humorous romp follows the clever hero Jurgen through a medieval cosmos as he searches for a parodied courtly love. His journey takes him through fantastic realms including Heaven and Hell, where he encounters eccentric knights, legendary women like Helen of Troy and Queen Guinevere, and even the Devil's wife. This acerbic satire of contemporary America became a landmark in comic fantasy, later influencing writers like Terry Pratchett. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
