About the Author/作者介绍： Marie Madeleine: aka Baronness Von Puttkamer, 1881-1944. In her time, under the name of Marie Madeleine, she established a name for herself as a writer of unusually lyrical, stunningly sensual, shockingly erotic and hotly passionate poetry and prose. She enjoyed immense popularity during her lifetime, and her books were published in the thousands. But because she was considered a degenerate by the Nazis, most of them were destroyed. Ronald K. Siegel is a psychopharmacologist and curator of the RKS Library of Drug Literature holding the world’s largest collection of Marie-Madeleine’s work. Eric A. Bye has translated over 100 nonfiction books (French, German, Spanish) and is the first to translate Marie-Madeleine’s lost work from both Fraktur (Old German blackletter typeface) and Sütterlin-Schrift (Old German handwriting) to English. Stephen J. Gertz is a life-long lover and collector of rare books who began his career in the trade in 1985 as a rare book scout and dealer.
