The short story is about an antiquarian running a shop with an associate. They got their hands on an old collection of erotic artefacts and books. As this is not their speciality (they run a respected shop, after all), they need to ask advice from someone who does know this world. Apparently, the collection contains a some rare and therefore expensive items. To attract the higher class of society means the rest of the population will follow and visit her shop. So she and her associate organise a sort of party to put the erotic stuff into the spotlight. This attracts all sort of upper-class and literate people. However, there's one little book that seems to be desired by various sorts of people, which is curious to witness. And so the game begins.
I found this story quite entertaining. It's fluently written, there are some fun moments, ... You might then want to read the book itself and its sequel/successor ([b:L'Échiquier de jade|40733710|L'Échiquier de jade|Alex Evans|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1530902027s/40733710.jpg|62399161]). As always, too many books, too little time. Besides, my French TBR-pile is still more than large enough, as are some of the books on it. ( )
