«Là-Bas» is the novel by Joris-Karl Huysmans, published by Gallimard in paperback (403 pages, in French).
«Là-Bas» follows Durtal, a writer disillusioned with the modern world who becomes obsessed with the figure of Gilles de Rais and with occultism. Durtal's investigations lead him into the Satanic circles of fin-de-siècle Paris, with black masses and the enigmatic Canon Docre, in a plot that mixes faith, perversion and reality.
Là-Bas was originally published in 1891. This edition, edited by Yves Hersant, belongs to Gallimard's Folio classique collection.
For those who enjoy nineteenth-century French literature and stories of occultism and mystery.
