The Audiobook Vault: Catholic Sacred & Classic Voices from the PastThe Twilight of the Souls – A Dark Psychological Classic of Moral Decline | Louis Couperus Audiobook Part 1⭐ Catholic Star-Rated Review ★★★★☆ (4/5 – Catholic Literary Merit)The Twilight of the Souls by Louis Couperus is a haunting psychological novel that explores the slow erosion of conscience, faith, and moral clarity within a decaying aristocratic family. Though not explicitly religious, Couperus masterfully depicts the consequences of spiritual emptiness, unrepented sin, and pride unmoored from truth. From a Catholic perspective, the novel serves as a sobering meditation on what occurs when grace is absent and the soul drifts into twilight rather than light. A profound literary work that implicitly affirms the necessity of moral order, humility, and redemption.

Indische boekenpodcastAflevering 2.2: De stille kracht van Louis Couperus (deel 2)In aflevering 2 zijn Reggie Baay en Sophie Zijlstra te gast bij Lara en Ricci. Het boek dat we deze keer bespreken is De stille kracht uit 1900 van Louis Couperus. De stille kracht werd lang beschouwd als een van de grote klassiekers in de Nederlandse literatuur.
