Více o knize
The narrative centers on Jean Des Esseintes, an eccentric and reclusive aesthete who rejects 19th-century bourgeois society in favor of an idealized artistic existence. As the last heir of a once-noble family, he retreats to a countryside house filled with his eclectic art collection, seeking solace in intellectual and aesthetic contemplation. The novel explores themes of decadence and the Symbolist aesthetic, reflecting Des Esseintes' disdain for humanity and his memories of a lavish life in Paris, marked by debauchery and fleeting love affairs.
