Review # 1 was written on 2012-12-26 00:00:00 Andre Walker Great introduction to the stars of the Decadent movement in literature in fin-de-siecle Britain, and the earlier writers that influenced them (Byron, Beckford, Shelley, et al). A good introduction to the field, it offers a generous taste -- but only a taste -- of all the principals, designed to serve as a springboard to further reading. A further glossary of artists and writers associated with the movement provides an additional resource for exploration, as does a list of films which evoke the same decadent spirit.

Review # 2 was written on 2010-09-28 00:00:00 David Dipple If you like Decadence as much as I do then reading this is like book porn. Only complaint which is also positive is that its more an introduction to Decadent authors and their works, since you only get a few chapters per their books and one or two poems per author.
