Product Description:
"Michaux is the poet laureate of our insomnia."-Anatole Broyard, The New York Times Book Review "Michaux travels via his languages: lines, words, colors, silences, rhythms. And he does not hesitate to break the back of a word. In order to arrive: where? At that nowhere that is here, there, and everywhere."-Octavio Paz A pairing of two of Henri Michaux's most contemplative texts-Stroke by Stroke (Par des traits, 1984) and Grasp (Saisir, 1979)-written toward the end of his life. The author's ink drawings accompany his poetic exploration of animals, insects, language, and human nature. Explosive, measured accounts of men and beasts. |
