Description
This astonishingly original collection of poetic miniatures is at once naïve and enigmatic. Words combine and unite in a strange dance around the symbolic figures of the madman, the king, the dwarf, the apostle, the Chinaman, and the Master. They are a succession of proclamations; brief, distinct texts which at times resemble aphorisms and at others exquisite corpses (the Surrealist game).
