Raymond Queneau – The Bark Tree
Only 1 left in stock
$7.00
“Seated in a Paris café, a man glimpses another man, a shadowy figure hurrying for the train: Who is he? he wonders, How does he live? And instantly the shadow comes to life, precipitating a series of comic run-ins among a range of disreputable and heartwarming characters living on the sleazy outskirts of the city of lights. Witch Grass (previously titled The Bark Tree) is a philosophical farce, an epic comedy, a mesmerizing book about the daily grind that is an enchantment itself.”
New Directions Publishing, 1971 Softcover edition. Discoloration/staining to wraps. Some wear along spine.
