Stories worth staying up for.

NUIT BRUTE brings together short fiction and a selection of books, films and podcasts about relationships, desire and culture. All 35 cultural introductions are now available in English; three articles are also available in the English journal. Other articles and additional review material remain in French.

The English reading edition

All five stories currently in the French fiction catalogue are available in English. Lou and Sacha have three episodes after their concert; Inès and Noam have two episodes, as do Solène and Maya. Two brief standalone scenes complete the selection. The standalone scenes also feature Lou and Sacha but do not belong to the concert serial. The characters are fictional adults. These romances are non-explicit.

The stories were made with AI assistance and adapted into English for NUIT BRUTE. They are prewritten, not generated each time you open a page. Their provenance is shown on the reading page.
