Review Quotes

"Polizzotti's remarkable achievement is a welcome addition to this small but growing body of work on Roussel and serves as a reminder of an author and a novel too often neglected, and far too brilliant to be missed." - Words Without Borders

About the Author

Raymond Roussel (1877-1933), born in Paris, was a French novelist, playwright, and poet. Unpopular during his lifetime, his works were highly influential to the Surrealist movement and the development of the nouveau roman.

Mark Polizzotti is the translator of more than thirty books from the French. His articles and reviews have appeared in The Wall Street Journal and The Nation. He lives in Brooklyn, New York.
