More about the book
Exploring the harsh realities of fin-de-siècle French bourgeois society, this melancholy tale delves into class struggles and interclass inequality in 19th century France. Through the lens of family fortune disputes, Huysmans critiques the greed and moral dilemmas faced by the bourgeoisie, highlighting their stark contrast to the lives of the less fortunate. A Dilemma presents a mordant reflection on class prejudice, with Aaron J. Clarke's translation bringing this poignant narrative to contemporary readers in Australia, emphasizing its enduring relevance.
