Two opening pages of a French "dossier" with the heading "Les Pervers, modes d´emploi" , organized by Sarah Chiche for "Le Magazine Littéraire" May 2015.
There will be an article discussing V.Nabokov's frequent description of perverse characters ("Lolita", "Laughter in the Dark", "Ada", ...) and its author's (Stéphane Legrand) conjectures which I shall dbring up in another posting.
