The Affair of Rennes is a nest of enigmas that has baffled and
enthralled readers in equal measure for more than fifty years. From
a minor riddle of local history about a tiny village in the south
of France, it has become a global phenomenon, inspiring countless
articles, books, documentaries and even movies. Yet the core
questions at the heart of the story have remained unsolved. Until
now. In The Map and the Manuscript: Journeys in the Mysteries of
the Two Rennes, author Simon M. Miles retraces his steps on a
twenty-year investigation into the Affair and describes a series of
breakthroughs which have broken the seals on this intriguing
puzzle. For the first time, knowledge that has been carefully
hidden from view for decades, and even longer, is revealed. The
anonymous author of a strange surrealist poem is unmasked, and his
identity proves to be the key to unlocking the riddles which have
remained resolutely sealed. From the mysterious parchments, to the
enigmatic book written by a local priest in the nineteenth century,
to the persistent claims of alignments between significant sites in
the landscape, the Affair of Rennes gives up its secrets in this
book. Richly illustrated with 140 maps, charts, photographs and
diagrams, The Map and the Manuscript marks a new era in
understanding one of the great unsolved, mysteries of the twentieth
century.
