ASYLUM Volume 1 Number 3, 1985,

Boyd, Greg (editor)

Edité par Asylum Arts Publications, Mission Hills, California, 1985

Mission Hills, California: Asylum Arts Publications, 1985. First Edition. Fine magazine wraps. Greg Boyd's long-running surrealist and literary magazine is one of the greatest little-magazine ventures of all time, always unpredictable and worthwhile. This is the "Special Translation Issue" dedicated to Romanticism. Eric Basso provides a lengthy introduction on the Romantics, as well as the cover portrait of Baudelaire. Among the translations are the following shockingly cool items: "Guillotine for Dogs" by Balzac which horrifyingly enough is not fiction. Poems by Victor Hugo, Theophile Gautier, Gerard de Nerval, and Baudelaire, some translated by Eric Basso, others by Greg Boyd. Prose miniatures by Petrus Borel, and Aloysius Bertrand, the latter profoundly an influence on Baudelaire. Illustrated throughout -- by Baudelaire and Victor Hugo! LAID IN: Signed letter typed on a real old fashioned typewriter by Greg Boyd, to his contemporary fantasist Jessica Amanda Salmonson. N° de réf. du vendeur 3799
