This collection includes: Comédie de la mort (1838), Mademoiselle de Maupin (1835), Ménagerie intime (1869), and Sacountala, a ballet (1858). According to Wikipedia: "Pierre Jules Théophile Gautier (August 30, 1811 October 23, 1872) was a French poet, dramatist, novelist, journalist, and literary critic. While an ardent defender of Romanticism, Gautier's work is difficult to classify and remains a point of reference for many subsequent literary traditions such as Parnassianism, Symbolism, Decadence and Modernism. He was widely esteemed by writers as diverse as Balzac, Baudelaire, the Goncourt brothers, Flaubert and Oscar Wilde."
