Dagny, or a Love Feast is a novel written in English by the Georgian author Zurab Karumidze. It was first published in Tbilisi in 2011 and was longlisted for the International Dublin Literary Award in 2013.[1] It was published again in 2014 in the United States.[2]
The novel revolves around the real-life story of Dagny Juel, a Norwegian writer best known for her romantic liaisons with a number of artistic figures of fin-de-siècle Europe such as Edvard Munch. Murdered during a journey to Tbilisi in 1901, Juel's tragically short bohemian life is magnified by Karumidze's narrative explorations of fin-de-siècle mysticism and eroticism through such figures as Gurdjieff.[3]
