Trade Paperback. Condizione: New. New. 108pp. Empyrean Series 9 'I want to tell an amusing story, and yet begin at a grave. It is cynical, but I hope that, after a few words of explanation, even tender souls will forgive me.' -- A weird tale of sleight-of-hand, of resurrection, of time travel, from the late 19th century. Newton's Brain by Jakub Arbes, translated from the Czech by Josef Jirí Král, is an example of what the author called a 'romanetto', a very brief novel, often with fantastic elements. Published in English in Poet Lore in 1892, the book tells the story of a young man of science, whose beliefs are tested when his childhood friend shows up unexpectedly-unexpected, because he had died when a sabre split his skull in two during the Austro-Prussian War some months earlier. Convinced that his friend is playing some kind of elaborate ruse, he accepts his invitation to a secretive lecture, at which his friend-who claims to have had his own damaged brain replaced with that of Isaac Newton-promises to reveal everything.' ~ Publisher.…

Trade Paperback. Condizione: New. First Edition. New. 44pp. Translated form the Spanish by Magdalena Edwards. 'Luis and Laura, an Argentine couple looking for a new beginning, settle in France, connected to their former home only through occasional letters from Luis's mother in Buenos Aires. But when a name from the past appears in an otherwise unremarkable letter, it comes with a dark shadow. What emerges is a psychological study of grief swirling with guilt, equal parts love-triangle and ghost story. "Letters from Mom" is one of Julio Cortázar's most beloved short stories, part of the same collection (Las armas secretas) that gave us "Blow-up" and "At Your Service". It is translated here into English for the first time.' ~ Publisher.…

Trade Paperback. Condizione: New. First Edition. New. 99pp. Empyrean Series 7. 'An explosive narrative from the Russian master of modernity Boris Pilnyak. Pilnyak had lived directly the momentous changes of the Russian Revolution of 1917, and in Ivan Moscow he channeled the sense of danger and upheaval into a novel where the next direction can never be predicted. Shuttling back and forth in time, the difficult-to-summarize story involves a factory situated deep in the Poludov Mountains, syphilitic delirium, and a radioactive Egyptian mummy. If there's a narrative that conveys the shock of Russian modernity circa 1920 in such a riotous and entertaining fashion, well, we would like to know about it. Our text is a revised version of A. Schwartzman's translation of the book' ~ Publisher.…

Trade Paperback. Condizione: New. New! 'A computational mistranslation of mid-twentieth century Fascist architectural writing, Rationalism engages how fascist principles, long-since published, reverberate in similar expressions of contemporary rhetoric, investigating figurative and physical constructs as mechanisms of isolation and containment built into language. Intentionally "ruining" these structures, Rationalism sifts through the debris to understand the materials from which they are built and who builds them.' ~ Publisher.…

Trade Paperback. Condizione: New. First Edition. New. Empyrean Series No. 17. 'In Pages from the Diary of a Jackass (1925), a faithful beast of burden belonging to a drunkard farmer recounts the hapless adventures of his master, one of the inhabitants of a backwater town thrown into chaos by the arrival of a new deacon. Facing change and the loss of reputation, the farmer increasingly mistreats his jackass, who begins to question why he continues working for such a master. A political fable reminiscent of Orwell's Animal Farm, Duki?'s novella is a playful but moralistic work poking fun at religious and philosophical ideals. The English translation was made in 1931 by Vincent Uj?i?, pen name Vincent Georges, for the Progress Press of New York City in 1931.' ~ Publisher.…

Trade Paperback. Condizione: New. New, 'Hidden in the pages of Dawn: The Journal of Petroleum Officials in Boryslav for nearly a century, the short story "Undula" represents the likely literary debut of Bruno Schulz. Published under the pseudonym Marceli Weron, "Undula" teems with Schulz's unmistakble voice, offering an important look into the nascent workings of his writing mind. Long thought to have been a literary late-bloomer, this breathtaking story-risque even by his standards-provides a glimpse of the formative period of one of the twentieth century's great prose stylists.' ~ Publisher.…
