André Maurois composa une fantaisie d'un pays gullivérien où la race, sur l'habitat de laquelle un couple est abandonné, est mue par la soif plutôt que par la faim sexuelle (...). Maurois a suggéré à Masson un thème doublement érotique. Non seulement les illustrations de Masson renferment une certaine dose d'humour, abstraction faite du portrait de l'auteur qui sert d'introduction, mais encore leur sensualité, particulièrement dans les couleurs, est rarement égalée même dans l'oeuvre de Masson."
