Is coding multi-line curly braces in text mode possible?
I need to typeset the following document:

I have coded the following
documentclass[french, a4paper, 10pt]{book}
usepackage[french]{babel}
usepackage{fontspec}
begin{document}
setlength{tabcolsep}{1em}
scriptsize
section*{centering smallsc Tableau des principaux champignons comestibles de france}
begin{center}
rule{2cm}{0.4pt}
end{center}
subsection*{centering smallsc Basidiomycètes}
bigskip
bigskip
begin{tabular}{llll}
{sc Hyménomycètes}dotfill &
begin{tabular}{lll}
textit{Agaricinées} &
begin{tabular}{ll}
Spores blanchesdotfill &
begin{tabular}{l}
Amanita \
Lepiota \
Armilliaria \
Tricholoma \
Clitocybe \
Collybia \
Pleurotus \
Hygrophorus \
Cantharellus\
Lactarius \
\
end{tabular} \[3em]
Spores roses dotfill &
begin{tabular}{l}
Volvaria \
Pluteus \
Entoloma \
Clitopilus \
\
end{tabular} \[2em]
Spores ocracéesdotfill &
begin{tabular}{l}

\
end{tabular} \[2em]
Spores pourpresdotfill &
begin{tabular}{l}
Psalliota \
\
end{tabular} \[2em]
Spores noiresdotfill &
begin{tabular}{l}
Coprinum \
\
end{tabular} \[2em]
end{tabular} \
textit{Polyporées} & begin{tabular}{ll}
....... ....... & ...... ....... \
....... ....... & ...... ....... \
....... ....... & ...... ....... \
end{tabular} \
textit{Hydnées} & begin{tabular}{ll}
....... ....... & ...... ....... \
....... ....... & ...... ....... \
....... ....... & ...... ....... \
end{tabular} \
end{tabular} \
end{tabular}
end{document}
The above code compiles without errors using xelatex and correctly outputs an abridged version of the page I am trying to typeset but it misses the curly braces.
I have been trying to add
$ left{ ... right. $
and many variations thereof in many different places without success.
Is typesetting this via latex at all possible? Is switching to math mode imperative or is there any way I could create the curly braces without switching to math mode? I anything wrong with the method I adopted? Is there a "better way"?
