About me I love books and I want to be a dissolute dandy when I grow up.
“The fire that blazed in his eyes rivalled the rays of the sun” Balzac, Séraphîta
I'm currently reading "The Dedalus Book Of French Horror".
I eagerly await the July 15th release of "My Fantoms" By Theophile Gautier(NYRB).
About my library I am obsessed with nineteenth century, romantic and late romantic literature, symbolist poetry, and Fin de Siecle decadence.
Oscar Wilde and Jean Genet are my Saints. I love J.K. Huysmans, Jean Lorrain, Maturin, Beckford, Baudelaire, Nerval, Gautier, Chateaubriand, etc...
I am a Alexandre Dumas FREAK.
Recently I've been wallowing in german expressionism, lots of Gustav Meyrink and Alfred Kubin's super creepy "The Other Side".
