The book remains one of the stellar literary debuts of the century. Yourcenar has created a moving meditation on the relationship between pleasure and love. <p/>The rich, many colored subtlety of her great novels -- <i>Memoirs of Dadrian; The Abyss; Alexis; Coup de Grace</i>; and others -- is reminiscent of their intricate tapestries, while her sublime mystical appreciation of Nature and its beauty evokes the golden age of landscape painting in the Low Countries. - <i>The Paris Review </i></p>
