The name of the book comes from a 19th century Parisian poet's circle called the Zutistes. This literary coven included the likes of Verliane and Rimbaud. When they met they'd put out a blank album. Members were encouraged to write anonymous poems into the album if they so wished.
Some of the stories really surprised me with their level of sophistication and knowledge of obscure aestheticism. A trademark of Decadent writing is over-refinement. Some of these stories distilled incredibly wild concepts down to their essential oils; an ultra-potent elixir for the senses. I kept thinking, "How did the writer even come up with this stuff?" Great fun! ( )
