![]() ![]() Author: Bassmann Lutz Publisher: 66thand2nd Myriam, Goodmann, Tassili. Avanzano nel buio oltre la vita, rischiarati da una debole fiammella sprigionata dalla mano di Goodmann. Una volta erano esseri umani, ma adesso sono condannati a vagare in un'oscurità densa, in attesa di una fine che forse non arriverà mai. Il tempo intorno a loro procede a singhiozzo, si stira, si blocca, un tempo capriccioso e ballerino che viola le naturali leggi dell'universo. Per misurarlo, per dare un senso a questa bizzarra durata, decidono a turno di inventare brevi racconti: visioni di un mondo post-apocalittico, colloqui strampalati destinati a selezionare volontari pronti per morire, silenziose rappresentazioni teatrali, creature mutanti, monaci buddisti, killer spietati. Ma le storie rimangono sospese, così come eternamente sospeso è il destino dei protagonisti, invischiati nello spazio oscuro. E al di là dello spazio oscuro, ancora, la notte. € 16,00

![]() ![]() Author: Bassmann Lutz, Stump Jordan (TRN) Publisher: Univ of Nebraska Pr From one of the most original French writers of our day comes a mysterious, prismatic, and at times profoundly sad reflection on humanity in its darker moments—one of which may very well be our own. In a collection of fictions that blur distinctions between dreaming and waking reality, Lutz Bassmann sets off a series of echoes—the “entrevoutes” that conduct us from one world to another in a journey as viscerally powerful as it is intellectually heady. While humanity seems to be fading around them, the members of a shadowy organization are doing their inadequate best to assist those experiencing their last moments. From a soldier-monk exorcising what seem to be spirits (but are they?) from an abandoned house, to a spy executing a mission whose meaning eludes him, to characters exploring cells, wandering through ruins, confronting political dissent and persecution, encountering—perhaps—the spirits once exorcised, these stories conduct us through a world at once ambiguous and sharply observed. This remarkable work, in Jordan Stump’s superb translation, offers readers a thrilling entry into Bassmann’s numinous world. € 18,50
