Life as a teenage bride is no joke but Zeeks is a born survivor. She knows this city like the back of her hand: its slave girls and drag queens, its shining villas and rotting slums.

Hvad er det ved Sapfo, som altid fortryller? Sapfo, som levede omkring 630 f.v.t. og var så stor en digter, at hun bliver kaldt den tiende muse. Sapfo, som sang om kærlighed, ikke krig. Sapfo, som sang om Afrodite, ritualer, erotik. Sapfo fra Lesbos, heraf ordet lesbisk. Gåden Sapfo. Sapfos store værk er kun overleveret i form af brudstykker gennem andres citater og på itureven papyrus fundet på lossepladser og i krokodillemumier. Så meget er gået tabt, så meget er for længst forsvundet. Stoffet er helt bogstaveligt i stumper og stykker. Og alligevel føles Sapfo helt tæt på her og nu.

İşitin ey yarenlerm Kıymetli nesnedir aşk, Değmelere verilmez, Hürmetli nesnedir aşk. Denizleri kaynatır, Mevce gelir oynatır, Kayaları söyletir, Kuvvetli nesnedir aşk.......

Sensual, macabre, joyous and liberating, The Flowers of Evil, or Les Fleurs du Mal, is a beautifully debauched reflection on dreams, sin, life, and death. With subjects ranging from travel to drugs, sex to faith, sleep to contemplation, Baudelaire finds new beauty in the most sinister and corrupt of situations. His morbid and nightmarish Romanticism was completely unique: cynical and bleak, but also inspiring. The book was highly controversial upon its release and Napoleon III’s government prosecuted Baudelaire for "an insult to public decency".
