He recovers only through the ministrations of his wife, Marceline, and his sudden, ruthless determination to live a life unencumbered by God or values. What ensues is a wild flight into the realm of the senses that culminates in a remote outpost in the Sahara--where Michel's hunger for new experiences at any cost bears lethal consequences. \u003ci\u003eThe Immoralist\u003c\/i\u003e is a book with the power of an erotic fever dream--lush, prophetic, and eerily seductive.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Immoralist | Andre Gide | Paperback | 9780679741916 | Used: Good | Back Stacks I 1771005","offer_id":49550629503128,"sku":"1771005","price":174.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/91L_jQw-0jL.jpg?v=1784902290","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/immoralist","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
