Marie Madeleine: aka Baronness Von Puttkamer, 1881-1944. In her time, under the name of Marie Madeleine, she established a name for herself as a writer of unusually lyrical, stunningly sensual, shockingly erotic and hotly passionate poetry and prose. She enjoyed immense popularity during her lifetime, and her books were published in the thousands. But because she was considered a degenerate by the Nazis, most of them were destroyed. Despite the obvious threat to her work and even her personal safety, she continued writing in defiance of the Nazi mores. Ronald K. Siegel, Ph.D, [Preface, Historical Notes, Introduction] Dr. Siegel is a psychopharmacologist and former research professor at UCLA School of Medicine, author of several books including the acclaimed Intoxication, numerous journal articles based on translations of lost and forgotten works in drug literature, and currently curator of the RKS Library of Drug Literature holding the world’s largest collection of Marie-Madeleine’s work.

Bye, M.A. Bye has translated over 100 nonfiction books (French, German, Spanish) and is the first to translate Marie-Madeleine’s lost work from both Fraktur (Old German blackletter typeface) and Sütterlin-Schrift (Old German handwriting) to English.
