When I first saw 'The Night Porter" I was fourteen and I used to masturbate thinking about Charlotte Rampling's mouth. Flip books combine voyeurism and masturbation; they have the addictive nature of memory itself. This is my own version of the film, on book form. Over the years, I watched "The Night Porter" over and over and my admiration for the great Liliana Cavani only grew. If no poetry after the Holocaust, then prose is in order.
