A socialite’s initiation into the world of sensuality.
To escape a loveless life, Mrs. X explores the Thousand and One Nights of her own desire. She entrusts her erotic and aesthetic initiation to women she admires: philosophers, actors, psychoanalysts, writers, even a nun and a hermaphrodite. These women introduce her into a succession of erotic tableaux. Her quest takes her from Paris to Istanbul, via New York, Stockholm and Venice. Along the way she discovers dangerous secret worlds.
But what price will Mrs. X pay for her restored desire? In this hall of mirrors, even the reader may discover hidden aspects of him or herself.
Let yourself be tempted by sensual, artistic experimentations that hover between Alice in Wonderland and Eyes Wide Shut.

Vivant une histoire d’amour impossible, la narratrice s’invente un double littéraire, Madame X, pour partir à la recherche de son véritable désir. Dans ce voyage initiatique qui nous transporte de Paris à Istanbul, de New York à Venise, le personnage demande à des femmes qu’elle admire : philosophes, actrices, psychanalystes, artistes, écrivains ou encore une nonne et une hermaphrodite, de lui confier des tâches qui lui ouvrent les portes vers des mondes secrets et fantastiques. Quel est son véritable désir ? Et quel est le prix à payer pour le trouver ?
Un roman à clés captivant, à la croisée d’Alice aux pays des
merveilles et d’Eyes Wide Shut.
