«Manual de Civilidade para Meninas» is the erotic satire by Pierre Louÿs published by VS Editor in paperback in 2019 (84 pages, in Portuguese).
A work that caricatures etiquette and moral manuals for girls, inverting their advice with irony, burlesque humour and a transgressive erotic charge. The text plays with the double morality of the era and shows Louÿs's satirical vein, an author also of poetry, fiction and essays.
Portuguese translation by Júlio Henriques of the 1919 French original «Manuel de civilité pour les petites filles à l'usage des maisons d'éducation»; this edition has 84 pages.
For readers of satire, humour and classic erotic literature, particularly those interested in early 20th-century French literature and its transgressions.
