Long ago, the world fell into twilight, when the great empires of old consumed each other in sorcerous cataclysms. In the south, the Star Towers fell, swallowed by the sea, while the black glaciers descended upon the northern holdfasts, entombing the cities of Min-Ceruth in ice and sorcery. Then from the ancient empire of Menekar, the paladins of Ama came, putting every surviving sorcerer to the sword and cleansing their taint from the land. The pulse of magic slowed, fading like the heartbeat of a dying man. But after a thousand years, it has begun to quicken again.

Au tournant du XXe siècle, Pierre Louÿs nous entraîne dans un archipel de rêves et de sensations. Dans cette fiction envoûtante, le monde se fait mirage: paysages, corps et souvenirs se répondent dans une lumière changeante, portée par une prose somptueuse et profondément sensuelle. On avance comme sur des îles reliées par la mer du désir, passant d’une vision à l’autre, entre langueur, mystère et éclats de beauté.

Dans ces contes piquants et irrévérencieux, Armand Silvestre s’amuse à bousculer les convenances: il interroge les usages, nargue les habitudes bien-pensantes et met en lumière les contradictions des mœurs et des traditions. D’une plume vive, ironique et élégante, il multiplie les portraits incisifs, les situations décalées et les retournements malicieux, pour une satire aussi légère qu’acérée.

Chaque jeudi, chez Madame Charbonneau, se joue un théâtre de salon où se croise la société du milieu du XIXe siècle. Armand de Pontmartin y déploie une satire alerte des mœurs: reparties étincelantes, piques feutrées, vanités à demi voilées et ambitions patiemment ourdies.

Dans ces courts tableaux en prose, Remy de Gourmont distille une mélancolie lucide et une ironie feutrée. Entre rêve et désenchantement, figures furtives et paysages intérieurs se succèdent en vignettes moroses où l’ombre révèle la beauté. Fin de siècle, la phrase se fait musique: elle effleure le bizarre, l’ennui, le désir, la mort, et laisse au silence la part du mystère.
