From the erotic writing lemma:
- "Deforges is not the only specialist publisher whose name springs to mind in the context of literary erotica. Éditeurs in this field include Éric Losfeld, a Surrealist who published erotic works clandestinely (`sous le manteau') and officially; Claude Tchou, whose Cercle du Livre Précieux series included erotic `classics' and new texts; and Jean-Jacques Pauvert, whose efforts to bring out new editions of the works of Sade encountered legal obstacles in the 1950s. Yet other publishers specializing in the erotico-literary domain are are Christian Bourgois, La Jeune Parque, Spengler, and Zulma. As Brécourt-Villars indicates, after 1964 mainstream maisons d'édition such as Gallimard also began to publish erotic fiction (Brécourt-Villars 1985).
