There are six pages on the novel of a late 19th century socialist author. That's only one author.

It seems this book is one half history and one half literary review. That's not exaggerated. Icks goes on and on about the works of various "decadent" authors and even quotes their prosaic descriptions of Elagabalus' dress in verbatim.
