Beskrivelse af Celibates
""Celibates"" is a novel written by George Moore that was first published in 1895. The book is set in late 19th century Paris and follows the lives of three characters: Gabriel, an artist who has taken a vow of celibacy; Julien, a young man who is struggling with his own sexual desires and the expectations of society; and Madame Gervaisais, an older woman who has lived a life of celibacy and devotion to God.As the story unfolds, the three characters are brought together in various ways, each grappling with their own personal struggles and desires. Gabriel, who has renounced love and sex in order to focus on his art, finds himself drawn to Madame Gervaisais, who has devoted her life to God but is now questioning her faith. Julien, meanwhile, is torn between his own desires and the expectations of his family and society.Through the interactions of these characters, Moore explores themes of love, desire, faith, and the struggle to find meaning in life. The novel is written in a lyrical, poetic style that reflects the characters' inner thoughts and emotions, and is considered a classic of late 19th century literature.His death was very mysterious. The doctors could not account for it. There ought to have been a post-mortem examination.' Feeling that this was not sufficient reason, and remembering suddenly that Ralph held socialistic theories and was a member of a sect of socialists, she said: 'Ralph was a member of a secret society.... He was an anarchist--no one suspected it, but he told me everything, and it was I who persuaded him to leave the Brotherhood.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
