The Overdiscriminating Lover
Alberto Manguel
A genius of erotic minimalism, Anatole Vasanpeine is a little-known (and imaginary) character from the early 20th century town of Poitiers. History remembers him for one extraordinary trait: his passionate love not for whole things but for small details, in other words for the intimate, anonymous and tragic world that surrounds us.
