The Kiss of the Octopus
''The Kiss of the Octopus'' is the twenty-second novel of Patrick Grainville published in éditions du Seuil in 2010.
==Historical background==
The painters are in the center of Patrick Grainville's work — Jacques Callot in "''The Edge"'' (1973), Jan van Eyck in ''"The Workshop of the painter"'' (1988), George Catlin in ''"Bison"'' (2014), etc. The Japanese painter Hokusai is the author of an erotic and fantastique Ukiyo-e engraving: ''The Dream of the Fisherman's Wife''. There is shown the ecstasy of a naked woman clutched by two octopuses there. Patrick Grainville undertakes to tell the story of these supernatural lovers. With ''The Kiss of the Octopus'' he extends once again the imagination of a famous picture and offers his literary equivalence. The present theme of animality in all his books is carried across the engraving to the paroxysm of art and of transgression and found between others. The hallucinosis advantageous of erotic situations also returns in Japanese tradition idealised by Yasunari Kawabata in "The House of the Sleeping Beauties".〔(''La belle endormie et la pieuvre géante'' ), Alice Ferney, ''Le Figaro'', 14 janvier 2010.〕
