Beskrivning
This book unearths a treasure trove of stories composed in the early reign of Augustus a Roman writer Albucius. Pascal Quignard restores the life of this writer which we know almost nothing about. With fifty-three short stories of sex, murder, violence and legal debate, taken from these writings, he creates a Roman "Thousand and One Nights". Marquis de Sade is not far away.
