81 pp.; 20.8 x 14.8 cm.; black-and-white; unsigned and unnumbered; offset-printed "The Supermale" a novel by Alfred Jarry, translated from the french by Ralph Gladstone and Barbara Wright. Introduction by Barbara Wright. "'The Supermale' ('Le Surmâle') by Alfred Jarry first published in French in 1902, is a disturbing yet hilarious vision of the future (the 1920s!). Jarry, most famous for his uproarious play Ubu Roi, here combines fin-de-siécle love of posing with Gargantuan sexual excess, in a short novel whose black humor in many ways anticipates the surrealists and such disparate writers as Queneau and Genet. Choosing to test man's potential in the sexual arena, Jarry has created a remarkable piece of bittersweet erotica, comic in its wit and deliberate pretension, and poignant in the Supermale's conclusion: 'Assiduous lovemaking leaves no time to experience love." -- publisher's statement. Jacket design by Gertrude Huston. Fine. Dust-jacket and book both in Fine condition, clean and unmarked.
