Ã? rebours, Against the Grain or Against Nature in English, is an 1884 novel by Joris-Karl Huysmans. Anti-hero Jean Des Esseintes despises the bourgeois society he lives in and withdraws into the aesthetic and artistic ideals that he has created. Believing the novel would be rejected by both critics and public, Huysman declared: "It will be the biggest fiasco of the year - but I don't care a damn! It will be something nobody has ever done before, and I shall have said what I want to say..." The novel did receive great publicity on its release, but even though it was heavily criticized it also became influential with a new generation of writers and aesthetes.… (lisätietoja)

Over two months elapsed before Des Esseintes could immerse himself in the peaceful silence of his house at Fontenay, for purchases of all sorts still kept him perambulating the streets and ransacking the shops from one end of Paris to the other.
If, in a cosy fantasy of cultural influence, one were to present one's young niece or nephew with their first nineteenth-century novel, only the most wicked amongst us would choose Joris-Karl Huysmans's Against Nature (in the original French, A rebours). (Introduction)
Judging by the few portraits that have been preserved in the Chateau de Lourps, the line of the Floressas des Esseintes consisted, in bygone days, of muscular warriors and grim-looking mercenaries. (Prologue)

Lord, take pity on the Christian who doubts, on the unbeliever who longs to believe, on the gallery-slave of life who is setting sail alone, at night, under a sky no longer lit, now, by the consoling beacons of the ancient hope.
If the apparent intellectual immodesty of Huysmans's 'difficult' here is approached in this spirit, then there should be little to fear and much to enjoy in this narrative journey tracked backwards and inwards via the signposts of a culturally saturated imagination, through forms of a self experienced as at once inescapable and unavoidable - indeed like this novel. (Introduction)
He set masons to work on the house he had acquired, and suddenly, one day, without telling anyone of his plans, sold off his old furniture, dismissed his servants, and disappeared, leaving no address with the concierge. (Prologue)
