"Cruel Stories" by O. Villiers de Lisle-Adan is one of the peaks of the French novel of the 19th century. Much inspired by Edgar Allan Poe's prose, they are laced with irony and protest against senseless suffering, whether the author tells of a date of fifteen-year-olds ("Virginie and Paul") saying "get the money," "save the money," or of a strange German baron traveling from country to country to attend executions and torture.
