VítÄ›zslav Nezval 184747 - Edition 69

Title: Edition 69
Description: Twisted Spoon Press, 2002. Gekartonneerd. Pp: 134. Fiction. Translated from the Czech by Jed Slast. Launched in 1931 by Styrsky, Edition 69 consisted of six volumes of erotic literature and illustration that followed the path marked out by Louis Aragon's Irene's Cunt and Georges Bataille's Story of the Eye. Because of censorship laws the Edition 69 series was not for sale. The original print runs numbered no more than 200. This volume brings together English translations of the two most important texts in the series: Nezval's "Sexual Nocturne" and Styrsky's "Emilie Come to Me in a Dream," supplemented by the original essay from psychoanalyst Bohuslav Brouk, a fellow founding member of The Surrealist Group of Czechoslovakia. Edition 69 represented a sustained attempt by the interwar Czech avant-garde to investigate the taboos of bourgeois culture. ISBN: 9788086264097. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.
