Editorial: Zenith Ivory Tower Publications

Sinopsis

🌀 A single mark. A wandering mind. An extraordinary journey inward.

In The Mark on the Wall, Virginia Woolf redefines the boundaries of fiction. This seminal short story, first published in 1917, offers readers a quiet yet revolutionary meditation on perception, time, self, and the elusive nature of reality. What begins as a simple observation—a smudge on the wall—unfolds into a rich and layered stream of thought that captures the essence of the human mind.

🧠 More than a story—it's a new way of seeing.
With her signature stream-of-consciousness style, Woolf invites us into the inner world of a narrator whose thoughts drift freely—from history and gender roles to nature, memory, and philosophical reflection. The mark itself becomes a mirror, reflecting back the reader's own uncertainties and insights.

🎨 A bold literary experiment that laid the foundation for modernist fiction.
The Mark on the Wall challenges the conventions of narrative and invites us to explore the spaces between events—the silences, the questions, the hidden meanings that shape our understanding of life.

A Confession

Leo Tolstoy

Leo Tolstoy's "A Confession," written in 1882 shortly after a life-altering spiritual crisis, is a brutally sincere reflection on life, morality, and the nature of faith. Tolstoy describes in great detail the process by which he lost his faith in established Christian churches, the meaninglessness of wealth and fame, the agony of acute depression, and how he overcame misery and dread through personal study of the teachings of Jesus Christ. Along the way, he contrasts the artificial faith and arrogance of educated people with the genuine faith and humility of the Russian peasant. This work, and others of its ilk, were aggressively censored by the Tsarist regime and directly led to Tolstoy being excommunicated by the Russian Orthodox Church.

Against the Grain or Against Nature

Joris-Karl Huysmans

"Against Nature" or "Against the Grain"—is an 1884 novel by the French writer Joris-Karl Huysmans. Let's explore this intriguing work: Plot Summary: The narrative revolves around a single character: Jean des Esseintes. He is an eccentric, reclusive, and ailing aesthete. As the last scion of an aristocratic family, Des Esseintes despises nineteenth-century bourgeois society. His goal is to retreat into an ideal artistic world of his own creation. The novel primarily consists of a catalogue of Des Esseintes's neurotic aesthetic tastes, musings on literature, painting, religion, and hyperaesthetic sensory experiences. "À rebours" delves into themes associated with the Symbolist aesthetic, breaking away from Naturalism and becoming the epitome of "Decadent" literature. It profoundly influenced works like Oscar Wilde's ""The Picture of Dorian Gray""1. Background: Huysmans, the author, underwent a significant shift in his writing style. His early works were Naturalist, depicting the drudgery of working-class life in Paris. However, he found this approach limiting and decided to apply the minutely documented realistic detail to a portrait of an exceptional individual: Jean des Esseintes. The character of Des Esseintes is partly based on Huysmans himself, sharing similar tastes but taken to greater extremes. Huysmans transformed this "wild and gloomy fantasy" into the novel ""À rebours""12. "Against Nature" invites readers into a world of decadence, introspection, and aesthetic obsession."
