Title : The Devils - Jules-Amédée Barbey d'Aurevilly - Book
Summary :
As for the women in these stories, why shouldn't they be the Diaboliques? Don't they have enough diabolism in them to deserve this sweet name? Diaboliques! There isn't a single one here who isn't so to some degree. Like the Devil, who was also an angel, but who toppled, head down, the... rest up! Not one here who isn't pure, virtuous, innocent. Even monsters aside, they present a very small number of good feelings and morality. They could therefore also be called "the Diaboliques," without having stolen it... We wanted to make a small museum of these ladies. Art has two lobes, like the brain. Nature resembles those women who have one blue eye and one black eye. Here is the black eye drawn in ink - in the ink of easy virtue.
