Majesty: A Novel is a literary work by the Dutch author Louis Couperus, which was originally published in 1921. The novel tells the story of a young woman named Lizzy, who is a member of the Dutch aristocracy. She is engaged to a wealthy and powerful man named Van Nagel, but she is not in love with him. Instead, she is drawn to a handsome and charming young man named Maurits, who is also a member of the aristocracy.As the story unfolds, Lizzy struggles to choose between the two men, torn between her duty to her family and her own desires. Meanwhile, the world around her is changing, with the rise of new technologies and social movements that threaten to upend the traditional order of things.Majesty: A Novel is a richly detailed and atmospheric work, filled with vivid descriptions of the Dutch landscape and culture. It explores themes of love, duty, and the clash between tradition and modernity, making it a timeless and thought-provoking read.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
