Contemporary reviews of the book were not favorable including this snippet from a review in the Poetical Register and Repository of Fugitive Poetry: 'With singular infelicity he has written a volume which does not contain a single good line. To grammar reason and even rhyme he indulges a most unwarranteable hostility.'. B. Crosby hardcover

(Erotic poetry) Dekobra, Maurice (Ernest-Maurice Tessier)
Extraits des Strophes Libertines du Chevalier Naja handwritten cover page plus ten typed poems with corrections in hand by Dekobra
Paris 1919. Paperback. Very Good. Manuscript / typescript of 10 erotic poems with cover sheet in pencil giving the title and with the note that these would appear in 1919 in a deluxe edition and in very limited number. Indeed they were published 20 poems in total with the same title very limited 84 copies with erotic woodcuts by Bernard Cochet under his pseudonym Gece. This was in the estate of Edmond Roze d. 1943 a theatrical impresario in Paris who was good friends with Dekobra. These are all erotic and libertine poems celebrating women's buttocks and various erotic pleasures according to one critic evoking the pleasures of both opulent Messaline-type figures the promiscuous third wife of Emperor Claudius and 'vicious fourteen year olds.' Age toning light wear to cover sheet most corrections are insertions of commas and the like. Now fairly unknown Dekobra in his day was known as an edgy and interesting writer and was widely read and admired. paperback
