Beerbohm’s first and only novel, published in 1911, is a wicked satire of undergraduate life at Oxford in which the beautiful heroine, or anti-heroine, Zuleika, leaves a trail of corpses behind as she makes her aloof but devastating way through the all-male bastion of patriarchal privilege.
Over de auteur
Henry Maximilian Beerbohm (1872-1956) was an English essayist, satirist, caricaturist, and broadcaster. The London son of a Lithuanian-born grain merchant, he became a member of the artistic and literary circle that included Oscar Wilde and Aubrey Beardsley. He was knighted in 1939. George Bernard Shaw said of him, ‘The younger generation is knocking at the door; and as I open it there steps spritely in the incomparable Max.’
