More about the book
Against Nature is Huysmans's great fin-de-siecle novel anticipating many of the strains of modernism in its appreciation of Baudelaire, Moreau, Redon, Mallarme and Poe. This new translation is supplemented by a critically up-to- date introduction and indispensable notes which enhance the understanding of a highly allusive work.
