History of a Pleasure Seeker
Richard Mason
Piet Barol has an instinctive appreciation for pleasure and a gift for finding it. When his mother dies, Piet applies for a job as tutor to the troubled son of Europe's leading hotelier?a child who refuses to leave his family?s mansion on one of Amsterdam?s grandest canals. As Piet enters this glittering world, he learns its secrets and finds his life transformed.
A brilliantly written portrait of the senses, History of a Pleasure Seeker is an opulent, romantic coming-of-age drama set at the height of Europe?s Belle Époque, written with a lightness of touch that is wholly modern and original.
