Description

Sabbat by Hélène Picard is a provocative and poetic exploration of Satanism, presented in a series of interlinked prose-poems. Commissioned by Colette, this 1923 work showcases Picard's unique style, which blends surrealism with decadent flair. A fine translation by Brian Stableford makes this rare and obscure text available to readers for the first time in English. This collection is an intriguing addition to the canon of Decadent literature, offering a fascinating glimpse into the literary tradition of "literary Satanism." Its themes and style are likely to appeal to those interested in exploring the darker side of human experience. For readers seeking to delve into the world of early 20th-century French literature, Sabbat presents an opportunity to engage with a unique and thought-provoking work.
