French Decadent Tales

Beschreibung

This newly translated selection of 36 of the best decadent tales from the French fin-de-sià cle brings together some the most exotic, stylized, and cerebral literature in the French language. Hilarious and horrifying, these extraordinary, corrosive little tales cast a cold eye on the modern world. Superbly translated and introduced by Stephen Romer.
