''Les Diaboliques'' (''The She-Devils'') is a collection of short stories written by Barbey d'Aurevilly and published in France in 1874. Each story features a woman who commits an act of violence, or revenge, or some other crime. It is considered d'Aurevilly's masterpiece.Robert Irwin. ''Barbey D'Aurevilly and the Satanism of Appearance'' in Les Diaboliques, 11-14. (Dedalus: Langford Lodge, St Judith's Lane Sawtry, Cambs, 1996).
