The Mirror of Divinity:: The World and Creation in J.-K. Huysmans

by Robert Ziegler

Using a multidisciplinary approach, this book argues that the operation of art-as-mirror is the key to the hidden unity of Huysmans' fiction. The author claims that only the elimination of Huysmans' stylistic distortions enabled his art finally to become faithful and clear.
