For Reading in the Bath, here presented in English for the first
time in a delightful translation by Brian Stableford, is one of a number
of risqué collections of ultra-short fiction produced by Catulle
Mendès (1841-1909) during the fin de siècle. Always
poetic, often perverse, and sometimes even chaste, these highly amusing,
masterfully constructed tales of amour and immorality, featuring a large
cast of Parisian characters, including the ubiquitous Valentin and the
many women he pursues, are confections of great artistry that will be
happily savored by anyone with a longing for suggestive treats.
