Beskrivelse af Zuleika Dobson
Zuleika Dobson is a satirical novel written by Max Beerbohm, first published in 1911. The story is set in the fictional Oxford University, where the beautiful and enigmatic Zuleika Dobson arrives as a guest of her grandfather, the Warden of Judas College. Zuleika quickly captures the hearts of all the male students, who become hopelessly infatuated with her. However, she remains aloof and indifferent to their advances.The novel is a commentary on the power of beauty and the destructive nature of love. Beerbohm portrays the male students as foolish and naive, willing to sacrifice everything for the love of Zuleika. The novel also explores themes of class, gender, and the role of women in society.Throughout the book, Beerbohm employs his signature wit and satire to skewer the pretensions and follies of the upper classes. The novel is also notable for its use of metafiction, with Beerbohm frequently breaking the fourth wall and addressing the reader directly.Zuleika Dobson is considered a classic of English literature and has been adapted for stage and screen numerous times. It remains a popular and influential work of satire and social commentary.For a young man, sleep is a sure solvent of distress. There whirls not for him in the night any so hideous a phantasmagoria as will not become, in the clarity of next morning, a spruce procession for him to lead. Brief the vague horror of his awakening; memory sweeps back to him, and he sees nothing dreadful after all.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
