Jean des Esseintes is the last member of a powerful and noble family. He retreats to an isolated house in the countryside where he indulges his taste for luxury and excess.

Eventually, his late nights and distinctive diet take their toll on his health, requiring him to return to Paris or to forfeit his life.
