Publié clandestinement en 1903, ce journal d'une enfant vicieuse est incontestablement l'œuvre d'Hugues Rebell, l'auteur oublié mais jadis célèbre de La Nichina et des Nuits chaudes du Cap français. Voici un texte très rare. Je n'en connais pas d'autre édition que l'originale (réimprimée en 1909), sauf peut-être une édition de 1961. Le texte est en effet cette année-là condamné par la dix-septième chambre. Mais on ne sait pas (aucune description de l'ouvrage condamné !) s'il s'agit tout simplement d'exemplaires retrouvés des anciennes éditions. C'en est en tout cas la première édition depuis plus de quarante ans, et la première édition au format de poche. Les curieux et les quelques lecteurs actuels d'un auteur injustement oublié y retrouveront toutes les obsessions sexuelles - amplifiées par la clandestinité - de l'étrange personnage qu'était Hugues Rebell, de son vrai nom Georges Grassal, mort prématurément de ses débauches en 1905, à trente-cinq ans.

The long-lost original novelization by real-life paranormal investigator Hereward Carrington and pioneer serial screenwriter Charles Goddard (author of THE PERILS OF PAULINE, THE EXPLOITS OF ELAINE, and many more early chapter plays) of the most horrific and captivating serial ever made, in fact, the only one that ever fully dealt with the supernatural. Myra Maynard's family is cursed by the devil-worshipping Black Order and she is marked for death by black magic on the eve of her eighteenth birthday. Dr. Payson Alden, the movies' first psychic detective, uses science to try and defeat the cult's evil spells, and is assisted by his friend Haji, a Hindu mystic. During the course of the 15 episodes of the serial, the clairvoyant Myra is assaulted by, among other supernatural menaces, astral demons, a fire elemental, even a "thought monster" brought to life by the malicious will of fifteen men, Levitation, crystal balls, automatic writing, mediums, witchcraft, a golden idol come to life, and many more bizarre elements which made movie history also figure into the story to make this a truly fascinating series that you will not want to miss.
