Julien Gracqs zweiter Roman Un beau ténébreux wurde 1945 veröffentlicht und erscheint nun, fast 70 Jahre später, als letzter seiner großen Prosatexte zum ersten Mal in deutscher Übersetzung. Ein vornehmes Strandhotel in der Bretagne. Unter den Gästen der Literaturwissenschaftler Gérard, der an einer Studie über Rimbaud arbeitet und uns in seinem Tagebuch über die anderen Gäste informiert. Die träge Ferienstimmung verändert sich mit einem Schlag, als ein neuer, faszinierender, intelligenter wie schöner Gast in Begleitung einer ebenso schönen Frau auftaucht, die Anwesenden in seinen Bann zieht und die Anordnung der Paare und die Ordnung der Gefühle durcheinanderbringt. Gracq greift die von den Surrealisten geführte Debatte um den Selbstmord auf und verwandelt sie in ein philosophisch-romanhaftes Geschehen. Aber nicht nur der Surrealismus wird evoziert, sondern zahlreiche weitere intertextuelle Verweise auf die französische und die deutsche Literatur durchziehen den Roman. Vor allem aber ist Gracq in diesem Werk bereits der Meister der atmosphärischen Landschaftsschilderungen, der ungewissen Stimmungen, einer Naturromantik von enormer Intensität, bei der Präzision und Phantasie untrennbar ineinander verwoben sind.

These Made My Bed Game Stronger
Color: 01 - White, Size: Queen (2 Pillowcases)
These pillowcases impressed me right away. The material feels good in your hands and the stitching looks like it was done right. Soft enough to sleep on comfortably, but not that overly silky soft that gets hot. I’ve washed them several times already and they came out looking the same each time. No shrinkage and no issues with the fit. I sleep pretty still, and honestly I never even think about the pillowcases once I’m out. That tells me everything I need to know. Great value and something I’d buy again.

Decent Comfort, but Honestly Overpriced for the Quality
Color: 06 - Aqua Gray, Size: King (2 Pillowcases)
I’ve heard a lot of hype about the Beckham Hotel Collection, so I decided to treat myself to this king-size set of luxury sateen pillowcases. Out of the box, they look very nice—the sateen weave gives them a subtle, sophisticated sheen that definitely upgrades the look of the bed. They feel relatively soft to the touch, and the 100% cotton material is breathable enough that I didn't find myself flipping the pillow over for a "cool side" in the middle of the night. However, after using them for a bit, I’m struggling to see where the "luxury" price tag comes from. While they are perfectly functional pillowcases, the quality feels fairly mediocre compared to other 500-thread-count sets I’ve owned in the past. The fabric is a bit thinner than I expected, and after just one or two washes, I noticed some slight fraying around the inner seams. They just don't have that heavy, crisp, high-end hotel feel that the marketing leads you to believe you’re getting. The biggest issue for me is the value proposition. There are plenty of other cotton sateen sets available for a fraction of the cost that offer the same—if not better—durability and softness. These aren't bad pillowcases by any means, but they aren't exceptional either. If I’m paying a premium for a "luxury" brand name, I expect the stitching to be flawless and the fabric to feel substantial, but these feel like standard department store linens. I’m giving these three stars because they do the job and look decent on the bed, but they didn't wow me. If you can find them on a deep discount, they might be worth it, but at full price, I feel like I paid more for the branding than the actual quality of the cotton. I'll keep using them for now, but I won't be rushing out to buy a second set anytime soon.

Great Sheets. Just Not what I was looking for
Color: 01 - White, Size: King, Color: 01 - White, Size: King
I purchased pillow cases which are silky thick and somewhat stretcy.. They felt very high quality to me so i wanted the corresponding sheets as well. I purchased sheets from the same manufacturer but they were made from different materials (my fault for not checking that). The sheets i ended up with very nice in their own way. They are King Size, 100% cotton, and look silky, just not what I thought they would be. They are not that thick but fine. The sheets i wanted were a combination of Cotton, Polyester, and some spandex.
