Park Barnitz, un décadent flamboyant de la fin de siècle, fusionna avec maestria la précision technique et une obsession implacable pour la mort, l'horreur et la folie dans son unique volume, Le Livre de Jade. Ses vers, inspirés par Baudelaire, devinrent légendaires dans le domaine de la poésie étrange. Avec de profondes études en sanskrit et en histoire asiatique, Barnitz laissa une marque indélébile dans le monde littéraire.
