Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

The first English translation of Copi's comic masterpiece, a careening pyrotechnic picaresque across France, America, and Ibiza. Set among the flamboyant demi-monde of the 1970s Paris underground, The Queens' Ball follows the narrator Copi in his attempt to write a novel as life comes undone around him. His Roman lover Pietro is stolen by a Marilyn Monroe impersonator whose coterie take up residence in Copi's flat and pump out low-budget pornographic rags and films. His friends leave him, burnt out from the theatrical excess of the decade. And worst of all his editor keeps calling him, demanding to know where the book is. Propelled by Copi's careening prose and incisive humor, The Queens' Ball swerves from Paris to Ibiza to New York and back again in a whirlwind frenzy of love, loss, and madness. Featuring an illuminating critical appendix by Copi's current French editor, Thibaud Croisy, Kit Schluter's rhapsodic translation marks the debut of Copi's world-renowned fiction in English.
