English Summary/英文概要： "If rape or arson, poison or the knife

Has wove no pleasing patterns in the stuff

Of this drab canvas we accept as life -

It is because we are not bold enough!" Charles Baudelaire

If you are familiar with the explosive End Times Trilogy (Vernon God Little, Ludmila’s Broken English, Lights Out in Wonderland) by DBC Pierre, you will be well-acclimatised to the heady heights traversed in this collection. Drawing on memoir and a life lived in pursuit of sensation, but always ignited by the flame of fiction, Petit Mallegories take us further into the imagination of one of the most radically original prose stylists of the past decade.

Accompanied by dozens of illustrations and photographic ’evidence’, the stories here inhabit worlds defined by appetite, excess and transcendence. Whether through food, drink, sex, drugs, or a fantastic cocktail of all four, the impulse in this book is towards epiphany. And the inevitable hangover that follows. But even that (or those) in the world of DBC Pierre can be nourishing.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： “如果生命是一块原色的画布，而强奸或是纵火，投毒或是刀剑在其上留下的不过是一块块不和谐的图案，那只能说明，我们还不够坚强与勇敢！"查尔斯•波德莱尔

如果你熟悉DBC皮埃尔的”终结时间“三部曲系列（《维农少年》《卢德米拉的蹩脚英语》《仙境之光》），那么你一定能很好的习惯贯穿本书始终的种种令人头晕目眩的极致。本书以回忆录的形式为我们呈现出一段对轰轰烈烈人生的追求之旅，普迪特•马勒葛利将带领我们深入到一个想象的世界中，一个有关于过去十年里最前卫也最原始的一种散文体裁的丰富想象世界。

书中的故事伴随着大量的例证与生动的图片”佐证“，描述出了一个由品味、无度以及先验所界定的世界。不论是以食物、饮品、性、毒品、或是鸡尾酒的形式呈现，本书中的种种冲动实则均是以心灵的顿悟为最终目标。随书还将附上随之而来的种种后遗之症。然而正是这些存在，在DBC皮埃尔的世界里，却是种世间不可多得的滋养。（DC）
