AN ABSINTHE SCRAPBOOK
[Illustrated eBook]
 Absinthe-
the legendary demon drink of the decadent 19th Century, that
inspired a cult and drove many of its artistic and literary
devotees mad or to suicide (writers and artists including
Toulouse-Lautrec, Degas, Aleister Crowley, Oscar Wilde).
A collection of dozens of illustrations - Art Nouveau posters,
labels, adverts, art, accessories, history, paraphernalia, for
all the major brands of absinthe, pastis and anisette, Terminus,
Oxygenée and Pernod.
Plus
- Absinthe Recipes - cocktails with a bitter streak
- Absinthe Tales - lurid short stories from the Bohemian Age,
inspired by visions of the Green Goddess
The book has been formatted with a mock “aged paper effect”
background, to enhance the impression of a 1900's souvenir
album. Supplied in PDF format for Acrobat Reader. Ideal,
novel gift for absinthe fans and connoisseurs and collectors.
