Absinthe in the Feminine | Marie-Claude Delahaye

Marie-Claude DelahayeThere could not be a more mysterious and romantic association than that of woman and absinthe. Both, considered devilish emanations in literature, arouse curiosity and suspicion.A modern beverage that women eager to emancipate themselves will enjoy, but also a pernicious alcohol that can lead to destructive habits, absinthe will find in women a preferred companion. Being both the Green Fairy that sustained underpaid female workers in the numerous distilleries, and the green witch that hastened the decline of women forced into prostitution, absinthe and the eternal woman could only meet.ED: Equinoxe (2007), 165x165 mm, 136 pages, paperback
