Sinopsis
Hans Cadzand's father dies when he is an infant and he becomes the centre of his mother's life. As he grows up from a pretty child to a serious young man with deep religious convictions, she hopes she will remain the focus of his life. She sees his desire to enter holy orders as a threat to their life together and tries to keep him near her by marrying him off to the daughter of her closest friend. This plan founders on the rock of his 'vocation', but then Mevr. Cadzand engages the beautiful and experienced Ursula as housemaid.
This long nouvelle is supplemented by shorter pieces from the collection Le Rouet des Brumes, brief episodes of love and death in characteristically atmospheric settings.

Acerca de los autores
Georges Rodenbach (1855-1898) born in Tournai, spent most of his time in Ghent and later Paris. He was a typical artist of the decadent period, unfailingly anti-bourgeois, solitary, an aesthete suffering some undisclosed malady of the spirit, a palpable ennui or spleen Rodenbach, although primarily a poet, is remembered today for his two novels set in Bruges; Bruges-la-Morte(1892) and The Bells of Bruges(1897) both translated for Dedalus by Mike Mitchell.
Mike Mitchell has translated over 50 books from French and German. His translations have won and been shortlisted for many prizes. His translation of Georges Rodenbach's The Bells of Bruges was shortlisted for The Oxford Weidenfeld Translation Prize.
He is the author of The Devil is a Gentleman, a biography of Dennis Wheatley and The Dedalus Book of Absinthe. Phil Baker is a highly acclaimed non-fiction author and a well respected reviewer for The Sunday Times and the Times Literary Supplement.
