Bibliomania: A collection consisting of three works that take us into a world made entirely of books, collectors, bibliophiles, artists, editors, printers and book hunters. Books in danger of extinction; literary prophecies; dangerous books, literary obsessions in the name of which crimes are committed. So, what fascinates us and what fascinated our ancestors so much about the book: a compact, generic object, with an almost uniform body and a changing face. Something modest, unoriginal, its durability is mediocre, its use involves investment, interpretation and time. But the book lives in our days and among us like a stubborn dinosaur that refuses to disappear, beyond climatic changes, wars and revolutions, fashions and governments. In this sense, the book is a miracle. A rare story by Gustave Flaubert written when he was sixteen, a masterful novella by Octave Ozan, and Alberto Mengele's simple, insightful notes invite us to celebrate this miracle, the book, through unforgettable texts whose ultimate function is to stimulate our beloved, reading.
