Garcia’s book at last
December 26, 2011
Fresh back to the hotel from a book-hunting trip. Took four tries to find this, but finally located it on the “new arrivals” table at the Gibert Joseph on the Blvd St.-Michel (still one more copy there in case you’re in Paris and looking for it, though the shops over in St.-Germain-des-Prés are out of stock, and Vrin was still closed today– but presumably has it).
Only had a a quick look at the introduction so far, but it looks promising. This will have to wait another week for a serious read, because I (like many others in his vast circle of friends) promised Latour to have a look at his final Modes d’existence manuscript, and that’s a time-sensitive task due to a publication deadline.
