The Double Chamber by Charles Pierre Baudelaire

Explore "The Double Chamber" by Charles Pierre Baudelaire on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.

A chamber that is like a reverie; a chamber truly _spiritual_, where the / stagnant atmosphere is lightly touched with rose and blue.

There the soul bathes itself in indolence made odorous with regret and / desire. There is some sense of the twilight, of things tinged with blue / and rose: a dream of delight during an eclipse. The shape of the / furniture is elongated, low, languishing; one would think it endowed / with the somnambulistic vitality of plants and minerals.
