This tale of seduction is itself a seduction, with a plot that could be said to slowly unveil itself before arriving at last at an unexpected consummation. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSummoned by Madame de T—— to her country house, the young hero of Denon's novella is taken on a tour of the grounds, only the beginning of a night that not only will be full of unanticipated delights but will give rise to unforeseen, perhaps unanswerable, questions. Lydia Davis's definitive translation of Denon's slim masterpiece is accompanied by the French text. Peter Brooks's illuminating introduction explores the mysteries of \u003ci\u003eNo Tomorrow\u003c\/i\u003e's original publication and the subtleties of Denon's ethics of pleasure.","brand":"NYRB Classics","offers":[{"title":"US - Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":46413733757155,"sku":"DTRPRUS-9781590173268","price":83.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1778\/4925\/files\/9781590173268.jpg?v=1749303373","url":"https:\/\/buybookbook.com\/zh\/products\/9781590173268","provider":"買書書 BuyBookBook","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
