The poems in this book, attributed to a certain Guillaume de La Mercie, appear as libertine variations, immediately claimed by four poets in search of new sensations, and who are more than just names. Nothing here resembles an artifice, the challenge being to intensely render the diverse, carnal and hazardous games of love.
As for the freehand sketches, the sensual and ardent evocations, the most vivid gestures that accompany this edition, they are obviously part of a different adventure. They have followed one another over several decades in Ernest Pignon-Ernest’s personal notebooks, or on loose sheets of paper that have suddenly reappeared, and they are there, not to illustrate, but to exalt, infringe, and decline voluptuousness.
If these texts and images are qualified as erotic, it is with good reason, since they intend to celebrate the most profane of pleasures, the one that can be both divine and demonic.
