139 pages. 8v0. Fine copy of this story of an enormous last day of life as one character's life is chased to extinction. With a different die-cut on every page, Tree of Codes explores previously unchartered literary territory. Jonathan Safran Foer has taken his "favorite" book, The Street of Crocodiles by Polish-Jewish writer Bruno Schulz, and used it as a canvas, cutting into and out of the pages, to arrive at an original new story told in Jonathan Safran Foer's own acclaimed voice.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good Plus. First printing. A Very Good Plus first printing with minimal shelfwear. Only issued in paperback. 134 pages. 5.25" x 8.75". Jonathan Safran Foer's (1977 ) Tree of Codes (2010) might, on its own, as an object, be regarded as an artistic achievement. But in considering the source material for this die-cut book-written-from-another-book, we are given a thought exercise about what is left of an artist after they pass, how is their work reinterpreted, and what might be intuited about what is omitted? Bruno Schulz (18921942) was a Polish Jewish author who was killed in the Drohobycz Ghetto. Most of his works were lost in the Holocaust, but Foer, citing it as his favorite book, used one of the surviving novels, The Street of Crocodiles, as the framework from which Tree of Codes was literally carved. The result is a poetic achievement of book craftsmanship, which we are pleased to offer here. . Codice articolo 53
