Diese Romanserie taucht in die dekadente Atmosphäre des späten 19. und frühen 20. Jahrhunderts ein und erforscht die Leere der aristokratischen Gesellschaft und die Krise ihrer Werte. Die Erzählungen konzentrieren sich auf raffinierte Ästheten und Künstler, die danach streben, ihr Leben als Kunstwerke inmitten des Verfalls ihrer Welt zu gestalten.

Es ist ein fesselnder Einblick in den Zerfall von Schönheitsidealen und den Aufstieg des profitorientierten Modernismus.
