A classmate of André Gide Louÿs studied at the École Alsacienne and went on to become a very well known French poet and writer a close friend of Debussy and Oscar Wilde. He was made first a Chevalier and then an Officer of the Légion d'Honneur for his contributions to French literature. <br /><br />This erotic work originally written in about 1910 was inspired by the free relationship between the author and the wife of José Maria de Heredia and his three daughters. It is considered to be Louÿs' masterpiece: 'a true story down to the smallest detail' according to the author himself. He wrote inside the book: 'Ce petit livre n'est pas un roman. C'est une histoire vraie jusqu'aux moindres détails. Je n'ai rien changé ni le portrait de la mère et des trois jeunes filles ni leurs âges ni les circonstances' This books is not a novel. It is a true story down to the smallest detail. I have changed nothing neither the portrait of the mother and the three young girls nor their ages nor their circumstances.<br /> Bibliography of Erotic Works by Pierre Louys - online. 28a for the later issue Paris, [privately printed by Rene Bonel], [1926]. hardcover
