Beschreibung

In "Woman and Puppet, Etc," Pierre Louÿs delves into the intricacies of desire and obsession, intertwining themes of love and manipulation within a richly textured narrative. The novella is distinguished by its lyrical prose, showcasing Louÿs's mastery of symbolism and sensuality, which invite readers to explore the psyche of its protagonist as he grapples with his infatuation for the elusive and enchanting puppet-woman. Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century fin de siècle Paris, this work captures the decadence and complexity of an era obsessed with artifice and eroticism, positioning it within the broader literary movement of Symbolism and the emerging realms of Modernism. Pierre Louÿs was a pivotal figure in the literary circles of his time, known for his fascination with the female form and the subtleties of eroticism. His travels and engagement with classical literature and art informed his explorations of gender dynamics and the male gaze. Louÿs's background in philosophy and his friendships with contemporaneous literary giants underscore the intellectual rigor behind his provocative themes in "Woman and Puppet, Etc." This book is a must-read for those interested in the intersections of love, art, and obsession, offering profound insights into the human condition. Readers will find themselves captivated by Louÿs's ability to render the intricate dance of desire, elevating this novella to a timeless exploration of the complexities of beauty and illusion.

You know that feeling. That electric spark. That moment when you lock eyes with a stranger, and everything shifts. The world slows. The air thickens. And in that single moment, you know—this could be something. 
I’ve felt it before. And I’ve let it slip away. Night after night, I rode the train. Watching. Waiting. Letting chances pass me by. MISS, MISS, MISS! Over and over again! 
Until one night… No, wait. That sounds too neat. Too scripted. The truth? Love is never neat. Lust isn’t either. It’s a bumpy ride—like the subway. On and off. On and on. In and out. - Yeah, you get the gist. 
One minute you’re standing still, watching the world blur past the window. The next, you’re gripping the pole for dear life, heart racing, wondering if you’re about to fall flat on your face. That’s how it works, right? 
One wrong stop, and you miss your chance. One right stop, and suddenly, you’re somewhere you never planned to be. I don’t believe in fate. Or maybe I do. I believe in instincts. I believe in following the pull. 
Most nights, I play the observer. Watch the stories unfold, the strangers with their own lives, their own secrets. Some of them are open books. Some of them are puzzles missing too many pieces. And then, every once in a while, you see someone who isn’t just another passing face. Someone who feels… different. Someone who makes you think, what if? 
Most nights, I let the moment pass. MISSED. MISSED. MISSED. And then, one night, I didn’t. One night, the doors slid open, and instead of just watching, I stepped forward. 
Not because I was looking for love. Not because I was looking for trouble. But because… I was looking for something. And maybe, just maybe—it was looking for me, too. 
MISS? Or HIT? Take the ride in "Lust at the Last Stop", a seductive, high-heat erotic romance by Vivia Volupta, filled with mystery, obsession, and toe-curling tension.  
I dare you… To follow.
