Alas, That is the only fiction that Guigonnat has written. I have done some research on him, apparently he wrote a book about what appears to be a French soap opera from the '70s.

Dæmon in Lithuania is one of the masterpieces of fantastique literature as far as I am concerned. It is like a cross between Edward Gorey, Roald Dahl, & Saki. I wish that Henri hadn’t just disappeared after writing it. Rather mysterious really.

Hmm…

<checks wishlist>

Ahh, joy! My top 5 are currently not porn, so I can share!

  1. House of Five Leaves, Vol. 1 by Natsume Ono (an excellent and highly recommended manga, which may be previewed free on Viz’s SigIKKI site)

  2. Ristorante Paradiso by Natsume Ono (another excellent manga by the same author)

  3. Tokyo Vice: An American Reporter on the Police Beat in Japan by Jake Adelstein (I read a review that sounded interesting, so am planning to pick it up from the library when they get it)

  4. Takato Yamamoto by Takato Yamamoto (that one you may not wish to Google, but it’s fine art, don’tchaknow, and very pretty too, don’t mind the blood; I really want a copy as soon as I can find one that’s not $95)

  5. Manga Kamishibai: The Art of Japanese Paper Theater by Eric P. Nash (another future library read)

(First porn pick, if you care: Liberty Liberty! by Hinako Takanaga - oo, look, it’s finally in stock! <shops>)
