{"product_id":"9781595690586","title":"The Child Of Pleasure","description":"The Child of Pleasure (written in 1888 and published in 1889) and its protagonist Andrea Sperelli introduced the Italian culture of the late 1800s to Aestheticism and a taste for decadence. Sperelli is a young count, who - like Joris Karl Huysmans' Baron Des Esseintes or Oscar Wilde's Dorian Gray - following family tradition, seeks beauty and despises the bourgeois world; leads an extraordinary life, which he lives as a work of art; and rejects the basic rules of morality and social interaction. However, this extraordinary sensitivity also implies a certain corruption, evident in his sadistic superimposing of the two women: Elena Muti and Maria Ferres.","brand":"Mondial","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47054281179376,"sku":"9781595690586","price":13.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781595690586_p0.jpg?v=1763813459","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781595690586","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
