In most of the stories, written between 1945 and 1952, Boris Vian's erotic imagination has no limits. From a werewolf who 'starts' in a small hotel in Montmartre, to a Bronx dancer who is only 'inspired' after running over dogs and people with a taxi, everything is possible. Other stories feature characters close to Boris Vian: rogues, imaginative, and cynical. The situations are absurd, reflecting the years after the war, a world of restrictions and the questioning of many principles. This book belongs to the 'Marginales' collection, number 38.
Boris Vian was a French polymath who is primarily remembered for his novels. Those published under the pseudonym Vernon Sullivan were bizarre parodies of criminal fiction, highly controversial at the time of their release owing to their unconventional outlook.
