First edition illustrated by Gus Bofa
This work is undoubtedly Gus Bofa's book with which his admirers have the most intimate connection. We find in these vignettes all the mastery of this brilliant stylist, and this sense of graphic formula which made him one of the fathers of modern drawing. In 40 satirical drawings Gus Bofa summarizes the work of 40 literary personalities from Proust to Loti via Schopenauer and René Maran. L'Agoisse with Edgar Poe, L'Intime with Zola, La Tentation with France, including the racist pun with Maran (black square for a black poet).

Georges Champion (1889–1940) was a French decorator and furniture designer. He was born in Chaumont. He was professionally active in Paris. Champion’s designs were known for their sleek lines and modern aesthetic. The Art Deco movement, which was well-liked in the early 20th century, had a significant influence on him. His furniture pieces often featured geometric shapes and bold colours, which made them stand out from more traditional designs. In addition to his work as a furniture designer, Champion was also a skilled decorator. He worked on numerous high-profile projects throughout his career, including the interior design of several Parisian hotels and restaurants.
