<DIV><B>This satirical novel of life and love at Oxford University is one of the Modern Library&rsquo;s 100 Best Novels</B><BR /><BR /> Max Beerbohm&rsquo;s only novel is a comic masterpiece set in the privileged environs of Judas College, Oxford. When beautiful prestidigitator Zuleika Dobson gains admittance to the all-male campus, romance is suddenly in the air. But the smitten undergraduates are out of luck, because this femme fatale can only love a man unaffected by her charms.<BR /> &#160;<BR /> The snobbish and taciturn Duke of Dorset appears up to the challenge, but his wall of indifference crumbles when Zuleika falls for him. She immediately rejects him for reciprocating her feelings, of course, and the Duke is driven to despair. He resolves to kill himself to teach her a lesson, but one small problem remains: Zuleika thinks suicide is romantic&mdash;and every lovesick undergraduate at Oxford is <I>dying</I> to agree with her.<BR /> &#160;<BR /> This ebook has been professionally proofread to ensure accuracy and readability on all devices.<BR /><BR /></DIV>
