Des Esseintes is a decadent, ailing aristocrat who retreats to an isolated villa where her indulges his taste for luxury and excess. Veering between nervous excitability and debilitating ennui, he gluts his aesthetic appetites with classical literature and art, exotic jewels (with which he fatally encrusts the shell of his tortoise).

Des Esseintes je dekadentní, churavějící aristokrat, kterýustupuje do izolované vily, kde se oddává luxusu a nadbytku. Vrhá se mezi nervózní vzrušení a vysilující ennui a svírá své estetické chuti klasickou literaturou a uměním, exotickými drahokamy .
