Joris-Karl Huysmans's 1884 handbook of decadence, "À Rebours," tells the story of a nature-hating aesthete named Jean des Esseintes. Subtitled "A Novel Without a Plot," the narrative concerns des Esseintes's attempts to furnish and decorate a country home where he will be able to live without ever again having to deal with the outside world.
