La novela, que toma prestado su titulo de un versiculo del Coran sobre la esencia de la vida terrenal, narra la historia de amor entre Phillip Dean, un universitario norteamericano que deambula por Europa, y Anne-Marie Costallat, una joven francesa de provincias. Evocada en todo su esplendor erotico, la fogosa aventura de los dos amantes nos llega a traves de la imaginacion de un solitario compatriota de Phillip. El desden hacia las convenciones sociales, la entrega incondicional al placer y la indolencia aparecen aqui delineados con un lenguaje conciso, que convierte el cumulo de impresiones y la mirada reflexiva y sensible del narrador en un himno a la sensualidad. / Set in provincial France in the 1960s, this is the intensely carnal storypart shocking reality, part feverish dream of a love affair between a footloose Yale dropout and a young French girl. There is the seen and the unseenand pages that burn with a rare intensity.
