by Renée Vivien (Author), Hélène de Zuylen de Nyevelt (Author), Brian Stableford (Translator)
Ren e Vivien and her lover H l ne de Zuylen de Nyevelt collaborated on two volumes of short prose, Copeaux and Netsuk , which, translated for the first time into English by Brian Stableford, are here brought together in a single volume.
Filled with extravagant exercises in symbolism and bitter-sweet narratives that often hinge on problematic confrontations between two female characters, which are simultaneously affectionate and adversarial, these tales of fantasy and Orientalia illustrate the magnitude of Ren e Vivien's literary achievement and the uncommonly broad spectrum of her interests.
Faustina and Other Stories represents a uniquely acute facet of the Decadent polyhedron.
