The Mausoleum of Lovers: Journals 1976-1991: Journals 1976–1991

The Mausoleum of Lovers comprises Guibertâ€™s journals, kept from 1976â€“1991. Functioning as an atelier, it forecasts the writing of a novel, which does not materialize as such; the journal itself â€” a mausoleum of lovers â€” comes to take its place. TheÂ sensual exigencies and untempered forms of address in this epistolary work, often compared to Barthesâ€™Â A Loverâ€™s Discourse, use the letter and the photograph in a work that hoversÂ between forms, in anticipation of its own disintegration.
