Soft cover. Etat : Very Good. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good. First Edition. This copy with gift inscription from Buck to previous owner on rear endpaper. Paul Buck has been a shadowy but persistently relevant figure in the British underground scene since, as these scrapbooks reveal, the late 1960s. Working as a poet, writer, artist, performer, translator and teacher he also founded the respected magazine Curtains which introduced to the UK the most avant-garde of continental writing and theory. Through this edited selection from his extensive collection of scrapbooks Buck has found the perfect way to present an intellectual autobiography at the same time as tracking the initial reception of important literary and artistic events, from the arrival on these shores of Robbe-Grillet in translation to a recent Susan Hiller interview. 140 pages, illustrations. First edition, first printing. Card wraooer with unclipped dust jacket (now in a removable protective sleeve). Slight shelf wear to edges, tight and square binding. Photographs available on request. All books dispatched same or next working day in robust packaging. Signed by Author(s). N� de r�f. du vendeur 018473

Paperback. Etat : New. Paul Buck - poet, playwright, artist, performer, translator and teacher - is one of those rare and amazing people who has made every part of his life into art. ''Improvisation is at the heart of my existence, and improvisation is based on preparation and self discipline,'' writes Buck. He was at the heart of the contemporary art scene in ''Swinging London'' during the 1960s, and in the 70s founded the seminal magazine, Curtains, which brought writers like Derrida, Bataille and Paul Auster to the foreground. This intimate book, part of Bookworks's engrossing Time Machine series, is essentially an archive in the form of a scrapbook of the life Buck has led, bringing together cuttings, clippings and comments (both fiction and non-) to tell the history of the counter-currents and counter-cultures that he has lived through. Among the figures included are Kathy Acker, Maurice Blanchot, Marc Almond, Genesis P-Orridge, Raul Ruiz, Jean-Patrick Manchette and Susan Hiller. N� de r�f. du vendeur 99314
