The second book of the Tabou Éditions Les 5 sens d’Eros trilogy, Souvenirs de jeunesse (Memories of Youth) shifts the focus to nostalgia, featuring eight short stories that look back at the awkwardness, excitement, and passions of youth and adolescence. The plotlines follow young adults and teenagers navigating complicated relationships, miscommunications, and early sexual experiences. While slightly more mature in its themes than the first book, it maintains a bittersweet, candid tone.

These stories were originally printed as individual comic strips under the series title ‘Souvenir’ in the Italian magazine Selen.
