The young Octave de Saville cannot bear life if he does not possess the angelic beauty of young Prascovia, wife of the handsome Count Labinski, and resorts to the magical powers of an old doctor versed in the magic of India, who swaps the bodies and souls of the husband and the lover. It is not the triumph of Good that these pages cry out, but formal beauty. In this work, Théophile Gautier explores the idea that beauty is above good. Gautier's influence on Modernism is essential, and scholars of Rubén Darío find in this text a fundamental key to understanding the renewing genesis of the prose of Azul.
