Paperback. Condition: New. The daring, mischievous micro-essays of award-winning French humorist Éric Chevillard, published in English for the first time   Éric Chevillard is one of France's leading stylists and thinkers, an endlessly inventive observer of the everyday whose erudition and imagination honor the legacy of Swift and Voltaire-with some good-natured postmodern twists.   This ensemble of comic miniatures compiles reflections on chairs, stairs, stones, goldfish, objects found, strangers observed, scenarios imagined, reasonable premises taken to absurd conclusions, and vice versa. The author erects a mental museum for his favorite artworks, only to find it swarming with tourists. He attends a harpsichord recital and lets his passions flare. He happens upon a piece of paper and imagines its sordid back story. He wonders if Hegel's cap, on display in Stuttgart, is really worth the trip.   Throughout, Chevillard's powers of observation chime with his verbal acrobatics. His gaze-initially superficial, then deeply attentive, then practically sociopathic-manages time and again to defamiliarize the familiar with a coherent and charismatic charm. Daniel Levin Becker's translation deftly renders the marvels of the original, and a foreword by Daniel Medin offers rich contextual commentary, making a vital wing of French literature and humor newly accessible in English.…

Softcover. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. [MUSIC]. Ed. Taylor Davis-Van Atta. Contributors: Paul Griffiths, Ann Quin, Lera Auerbach, Taylor Davis-Van Atta, Daniel Medin, Oli Hazzard, Danielle Dutton, Juliet Jacques, Kate Zambreno, Gidon Kremer, et al. "Music and Literature, No. 7." Music and Literature, Inc., 2016. English language. Softcover. Text clean. Fine. ISBN: 9780988879966. ISSN: 2165-4026. "The seventh volume of Music & Literature opens with a celebration of the prolific Welsh novelist, music critic, and librettist Paul Griffiths. Two exclusive interviews and generous selections of his musical and creative writings offer insight into Griffiths? extensive career and his many sources of inspiration, from Shakespeare to Japanese Noh theatre. Recent collaborations, including the song cycle let me tell you, based on Griffiths? Oulipian novel containing only the words spoken by Ophelia in Hamlet, and Gulliver, based on Jonathan Swift?s classic satire, receive their own mini-portfolios, testifying to Griffiths? status as one of the Anglophone world?s premiere?and under-acknowledged?talents. Meanwhile, Ann Quin published just four novels before her death at the age of thirty-seven, but in the decades since has come to be recognized as one of the most original voices of her no-longer-modern, not-quite-postmodern generation. Collected here, alongside a pair of Quin?s provocative and darkly humorous short stories, are new critical appreciations of her life?s work by leading contemporary writers, who pay tribute to Quin?s enduring legacy and influence. Finally, the compositions and performances of Russian-born artist Lera Auerbach have filled the most prestigious halls and stages around the world, while her visual art has been exhibited in some of its most renowned spaces. From the opening act of her play Gogol to appreciations of her poetry, this portfolio surveys the work of a genuine Renaissance woman.".…
