Ecstasy
This is the story of a young and beautiful widow, Cecile, who falls in love with a notorious womanizer. The tranquil setting in turn-of-the-century Holland belies the suffering that she has to endure in the midst of polite society, and the pain of unspoken passion as she abandons herself to love.

Über den Autor
Louis Couperus (1863-1923), regarded as one of the foremost figures in Dutch literature, was a leading member of the Tachtigers movement. Born in the Hague, Couperus was taken by his family to the Dutch East Indies as a child, where he remained until his father's death. His other novels include Eline Vere (1889), Ecstasy (Extaze: Een boek van geluk, 1892), Inevitable (Langs lijnen van geleidelijkheid, 1900), and The Hidden Force (De Stille Kracht, 1900), all of which are available from Pushkin Press. A renowned wit, raconteur and commentator, Couperus continued to publish critically and commercially successful work until his death.
