Over dit boek

This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. In the sunlit ateliers and cafés of the Latin Quarter, young American art student Selby is warned about her on his very first day: the beautiful, unapproachable music student the whole quarter calls "Rue Barrée" — named for the barred street where she lives, and for the invisible barrier she keeps between herself and every admirer in Paris. Even the irrepressible Clifford, conqueror of half the studios' hearts, has been coolly turned away. But Selby cannot let her go, and what begins as a student's infatuation deepens into something that unsettles them both. The closing tale of The King in Yellow trades cosmic dread for champagne, spring rain, and heartache, revealing Chambers as a master not only of weird fiction but of bittersweet Parisian romance — a story about the doors we bar against the world, and what it costs to open them.
