On her visit to the city during Eights Week, her beauty wreaks havoc. Attracted only 'to men who would not bow down to her', Zuleika is disappointed in her quest for one whom she could adore. To a man, the undergraduates fall madly in love with her, including the Duke of Dorset, a splendid young Apollo who seems the likeliest candidate. His vow to lay down his life for her has unpredictable consequences. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis centenary edition of \u003ci\u003eZuleika Dobson\u003c\/i\u003e celebrates Max Beerbohm's only novel. Illustrated by the author, it represents a distillation of his highly idiosyncratic talent. He said that he only ever intended it as fantasy, and it is in such a spirit that it ought to be approached.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith an afterword by Dr Robert Mighall, sometime Fellow of Merton College, Oxford\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Beerbohm, Max","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":46537985556819,"sku":"9781907360220","price":7.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0616\/4001\/6057\/products\/beerbohm-max-zuleika-dobson-an-oxford-love-story-9781907360220-50477786956115.jpg?v=1682188174","url":"https:\/\/keatsandchapman.info\/products\/zuleika-dobson-an-oxford-love-story","provider":"Chapters Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
