  • Summary

  • What is the link between Luxury and Lucifer? And, does Luxury escapes reason, and if so, why do we need it?

    Nicolas Chemla joins Leopold Ajami and Ricardo Pinto to explore the role of luxury in the human experience. Join us as we explore questions of great interest, such as whether there are standards for evaluating what is luxurious, the difference between ostentation and true luxury, and how material comfort is linked (and perhaps essential) to our character.

    Nicolas Chemla is a writer, novelist, and brand consultant with a background in anthropology and twenty years of experience working for global brands and agencies. His first book, Luxifer, was voted "best essay on luxury" by BFMTV in 2015, and his second novel, Murnau des Ténèbres, was finalist for the Renaudot Award in 2021.
