The Mausoleum of Lovers comprises Guibert's journals, kept from
1976-1991. Functioning as an atelier, it forecasts the writing of a
novel, which does not materialize as such; the journal itself -- a
mausoleum of lovers -- comes to take its place. The sensual
exigencies and untempered forms of address in this epistolary work,
often compared to Barthes' A Lover's Discourse, use the letter and
the photograph in a work that hovers between forms, in anticipation
of its own disintegration.
