Description
Dutch novelist Louis Couperus often employed epic narrative frameworks involving multiple generations and branches of a single family to explore timeless themes on a broad scale, so it shouldn't come as much of a surprise that the canvas of a royal family would appeal to him on a creative level. In Majesty, Couperus portrays the inner lives of the ruling class with pathos and humor.
