Les Tableaux Vivants

"Les Tableaux Vivants" is a rare ensemble of Victorian era erotica. With its 15 shorts stories, we find scenes of the most libidinous kind, all told in a wonderfully poetic prose which adds a decadent piquancy to the text.

Anonymously written in 1870, and translated from the original French by the infamous Charles Carrington in 1890, this tome makes a fine edition to any collection of the once-forbidden.
