Against Nature Is The Perfect Illustration Of Oscar Wilde'S Famous Paradox That Life Imitates Art, And Not The Other Way Around. First Published In Paris In 1884 When The Naturalistic School Of Which Huysmans Himself Was A Major Figure Was At Its Height, It Delivered A Bodyblow To Zola'S Brand Of Literary Realism, And Almost Singlehandedly Redefined The Literary And Artistic Canon Of The Nineteenth Century In The Process. To A Rising Generation Of Readers, Writers And Artists Across Europe, Huysmans' Novel Was The Instruction Manual Of A Movement That Was To Become Emblematic Of Findesiecle France: Decadence. The Novel Tells The Story Of Its Decadent Aristocratic Antihero, Jean Floressas Des Esseintes, Who, Bored By The Aesthetic And Carnal Pleasures The Parisian Beau Monde Has To Offer, Decides To Sell Up And Move To An Isolated House In The Suburbs. There He Constructs A World Of Artifice That Exactly Minors His Supersubtle, Perverse And Painfully Neurotic Sensibility. The Result Is One Of The Most Bizarre, Intriguing And Influential Books Of The Period. Whether Read As An Existential Fable, Psychological Analysis, Style Manual, Cultural Critique Or Social Satire, The Novel Remains As Audacious And Original Today As When First Published.
