Written by Marie-Anne Roumier Robert in 1758 in the wake of Fontenelle, this interplanetary novel, peopled with creatures both fairy-like and human, embodies the critical path taken by a woman of the Enlightenment who was both a scholar and a feminist, and who criticized scientific aporias, original myths and the codes and fashions of the times.
