"Édouard Georg À Cély" is a short fiction imagined by André Sauvage while he visits the painter and engraver Edouard Goerg. Monsieur Tesson has the habits of a lonely man: he is maniacal and misogynistic. To teach him a lesson, a couple of friends, the Cymboles, come to his house with a young woman, "Mademoiselle Anaïs", without telling him that she is married. Disturbed in his habits by visitors, Mr. Tesson welcomes them reluctantly. But gradually, a feeling of love for Anaïs leads her to give up her manic behavior. The three friends, judging that the joke has gone on long enough, end up letting go of him, pushing him away alone with his cat.
