The purported erotic memoirs of the acclaimed German opera singer, originally… posthumously published as Aus de Memoiren einer Sängerin in two volumes published c.1868-1875. The attribution to Schroeder-Devrient, who "dazzled Beethoven" (Kearney) is apocryphal; the first volume was likely written by Auguste Prinz, the publisher of the first edition, and seems realistic; the second is wild sexual fantasy. In any case, lesbianism, sadomasochism, group sex, sodomy, bestiality, scatology, necrophilia, prostitution, and vampirism appear before the curtain falls on this erotic aria in prose. "Hepley" is French literary historian and bibliographer, Louis Perceau. Painter, lithographer, and illustrator Louis Berthommé Saint-André (1905-1977) ".was especially a painter of women of all circles, preferably young and alluring.He also painted women in show business and those of pleasure" (Bénézit).
