A clandestine publication written by an American in Paris in a limited edition, 17/500. This little publication really does deserve the term 'curiosa'. One of a planned series of titles under thename 'Aphrodite Book' named after the book by Pierre Louys. The book is a sequence of imaginary classical tableaux performed in front an audience of the author, Pierre Louys, Marquis de Sade and Caligula. The outcome for the nude, female performers, given the guest list, is not good. Emulating Louys, the writing is florid and adjective laden. The planned publications did not come to fruition. The book is unillustrated. The book itself has plain card covers with thick textured paper wraps. Slight tanning and soiling to covers. Internally in very good clean condition. (I also have listed another French clandestine publication from the 1950s called 'Qu'en Pensez Vous?' All b&w illustrations, no text.).
