According to the author, A Universal History of Infamy "is the irresponsible game of a shy person who didn't dare to write short stories and who amused himself by fabricating and distorting (without aesthetic justification, now and then) other people's stories." The narratives gathered in this book were written from 1933 to 1934, and, according to the author: "They derive, I believe, from my re-readings of Stevenson and Chesterton and also from Von Sternberg's early films and perhaps from a certain biography of Evaristo Carriego."
