About the book
The Oblate is one of Huysmans' last works, profoundly spiritual and introspective, continuing the cycle begun with En route and La Cathédrale. This beautifully illustrated edition, meticulously crafted down to the smallest detail, is aimed at both Huysmans enthusiasts and collectors of 20th-century art books.
