Nerval recounts his adventures in Cairo and Beirut and retells some of the wonderful tales he heard related by professional story-tellers and others in the cafes of Constantinople and elsewhere.' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper). ***'Gérard de Nerval (22 May 1808 - 26 Jan 1855) was the nom de plume of the French writer, poet, and translator Gérard Labrunie, a major figure of French romanticism, best known for his novellas and poems, especially the collection "Les Filles du feu" (The Daughters of Fire), which included the novella "Sylvie" and the poem "El Desdichado". Through his translations, Nerval played a major role in introducing French readers to the works of German Romantic authors, including Klopstock, Schiller, Bürger and Goethe. His later work merged poetry and journalism in a fictional context and influenced Marcel Proust. His last novella, Aurélia, influenced André Breton and Surrealism. ***Increasingly poverty-stricken and disoriented, he committed suicide during the night of 26 Jan 1855, by hanging himself from the bar of a cellar window in the rue de la Vieille-Lanterne, a narrow lane in a squalid section of Paris. He left a brief note to his aunt: "Do not wait up for me this evening, for the night will be black and white." The poet Charles Baudelaire observed that Nerval had "delivered his soul in the darkest street that he could find." The discoverers of his body were puzzled by the fact that his hat was still on his head. The last pages of his manuscript for "Aurélia ou le rêve et la vie" were found in a pocket of his coat.'
