Winter Journeys - Georges Perec - Bog - Atlas Press - Plusbog.dk

Winter Journeys - Georges Perec - Bog - Atlas Press - Plusbog.dk

The Oulipo''s members have included luminaries of the calibre of Italo Calvino, Marcel Duchamp and Georges Perec. In 1979 Georges Perec wrote a brief entertainment for a publisher''s catalogue: The Winter Journey. It became his most reprinted text, and revealed an extraordinary literary discovery, a secret concealed at the heart of modern French literature. Following Perec''s death, the group began writing sequels to this tale, and gradually this became a sort of initiation to the group: new members were encouraged to write a Winter Journey''. And so a loose narrative was born.''

Some Limericks - Norman Douglas - Bog - Atlas Press - Plusbog.dk

Some Limericks - Norman Douglas - Bog - Atlas Press - Plusbog.dk

This collection has the dubious distinction of being one of the most pirated books of all time. Since its first appearance in 1928, illegal editions have appeared with remarkable regularity. The reason? Once considered obscene - it reprints a large number of the most savoury'' limericks known - it is also very, very funny due in great part to the author''s dead-pan commentaries and ''geographical index''. Douglas'' erudition effortlessly traverses topics as diverse as the mudflats of Leigh-on-Sea, the dahlias of Central America and the habitat of the Silesian tapeworm.''

The Tutu - Leon Genonceaux - Bog - Atlas Press - Plusbog.dk

The Tutu - Leon Genonceaux - Bog - Atlas Press - Plusbog.dk

The Tutu is a genuine literary mystery: a lost masterpiece. Published in 1891, it never made it to bookshops. Its existence was only revealed in 1966, by a famous literary hoaxer. It is the ultimate decadent novel'', but also outlandishly modern; it is excessive, repellent, infantile and riotously funny. Yet despite its absurdities, its eccentricities and its extravagance, in the end it somehow manages to appear compassionate, poetic, tender... even rational.''

Semmelweiss - Louis Ferdinand Celine - Bog - Atlas Press - Plusbog.dk

Semmelweiss - Louis Ferdinand Celine - Bog - Atlas Press - Plusbog.dk

Celine is best known for his early novels Journey to the End of the Night (1932) and Death on the Instalment Plan (1936), but this delirious, fanatical and unreasonable account of the life of Semmelweiss predates them both. Ignacz Semmelweiss (1818-1865) was a doctor, now regarded as the father of the cure to antisepsis. His fellow doctors rejected both his reasoning and his methods, thereby causing many thousands of deaths in maternity wards across Europe. While originally written as a thesis towards his medical doctorate in 1924, it was not published until 1936.

A Mammal's Notebook - Erik Satie - Bog - Atlas Press - Plusbog.dk

A Mammal's Notebook - Erik Satie - Bog - Atlas Press - Plusbog.dk

This is the largest selection, in any language, of the writings of Erik Satie. Although he was dismissed as an eccentric by many, Satie has come to be seen as a key influence on modern music. The appeal of his writings, however, go far beyond their musical value. He is revealed as one of the most beguiling of absurdists, in the mode of Lewis Carroll or Edward Lear, but with a strong streak of Dadaism (a movement with which he collaborated).

Theory of the Great Game - - Bog - Atlas Press - Plusbog.dk

Theory of the Great Game - - Bog - Atlas Press - Plusbog.dk

Between 1928 and 1930, the Paris magazine Le Grand Jeu (The Great Game) ran to three issues. During its brief period of activity, however, Le Grand Jeu was more than a little magazine that vanished in the orbit of the Surrealist movement. The journal was the public face of a tightly-bound group of artists and writers who since adolescence had systematically attacked their perceptions of reality by means such as drugs and near-death experiences. The theory of Le Grand Jeu is presented in the group''s own words, through the essays and articles which formed the magazine.

Cycle of Violence - Grayson Perry - Bog - Atlas Press - Plusbog.dk

Since winning the Turner Prize in 2003 and exhibiting at The British Museum in 2011, Grayson Perry seems doomed to become `a national treasure''.

Originally issued as a private publication in 1992, the story features an idealised male hero with tones of crossdressing and bondage, which Perry created as an adolescent and developed while facing up to becoming a dad.

Aurora and Cardinal Point - Michel Leiris - Bog - Atlas Press - Plusbog.dk

Aurora and Cardinal Point - Michel Leiris - Bog - Atlas Press - Plusbog.dk

In this novel of extremes, whose author''s distaste for ''things as they are'' includes the whole idea of ''novels'', Michel Leiris pursues his heroine, Aurora, through a visionary landscape shot through with catastrophe and disaster. His lucid and baroque language, with its incredible descriptions and ever more extravagant metaphors, is only just able to maintain the pursuit. Leiris participated in the most important French literary and cultural groups of his time. He was closely associated with the Surrealists, later with Georges Bataille and Jean-Paul Sartre.

The The Sacred Conspiracy - Georges Bataille - Bog - Atlas Press - Plusbog.dk

The The Sacred Conspiracy - Georges Bataille - Bog - Atlas Press - Plusbog.dk

Having spent the early thirties in far-left groups opposing Fascism, in 1937 Georges Bataille abandoned this approach so as to transfer the struggle onto the mythological plane, founding two groups with this aim in mind. The College of Sociology gave lectures attended by major figures from the Parisian intelligentsia - intended to reveal the hidden undercurrents within a society that appeared to be bordering on collapse. The texts in this book comprise lectures given to the College; essays from the Acephale journal and a large cache of the internal papers of the secret society of Acephale.

Anicet or the Panorama - Louis Aragon - Bog - Atlas Press - Plusbog.dk

Anicet or the Panorama - Louis Aragon - Bog - Atlas Press - Plusbog.dk

This novel, much of it written amidst the horror of the trenches when Aragon was a medical orderly during the First World War, demonstrates the chasm that separates the works of the artists and writers of what would become Dadaism and those, say, of the English War poets. Aragon''s precisely crafted and sardonic prose reveals a world that is no more than a tragic puppet show, with every scene self-evidently staged. This furious tempest of a book launched Aragon''s career and is one the cornerstones of the Paris Dada movement.

The Living are Few, the Dead Many - Hans Henny Jahnn - Bog - Atlas Press - Plusbog.dk

The Living are Few, the Dead Many - Hans Henny Jahnn - Bog - Atlas Press - Plusbog.dk

The inter-war literary scene in Europe was ripe with Gothic Romanticism and modernist literary Expressionism a la Doblin and Joyce. Hans Henny Jahnn created a ''crazed marriage'' between these two in his personal cries of existential horror and guilt. Jahnn had both a repulsion and a fascination for mortality, which was reinforced by his unconventional sexuality and by his philosophy that celebrated all aspects of life and death. The Living are Few, the Dead Many features a selection of Jahnn''s works, including The Night of Lead, which is his most renowned work in Germany.
