TYPO 13 is now available from Black Scat Books! For this one, I contributed translations of a story by Tristan Bernard (“The Collector”), an essay by Gabriel de Lautrec (“Latin Symbolism”), and two short pieces by Alfred Jarry (“Explanatory Memorandum on the Terrible Accident of February 30, 1891” and “The Fiancé in Spite of Himself”), as well as an excerpt from a piece for microtonal zither, “Interlude in C.”
My imaginative colleagues are Madeleine de L’Aubépine, Marcel Béalu, Erik Belgum, Terry Bradford, R J Dent, Mike Ferguson, Rachel Galvin, Massimo Gatta, Edward Gauvin, Amy Kurman, George MacLennan, Alfred de Musset, Opal Louis Nations, Ernesto López Parra, Alejandro Albarrán Polanco, Bernard Quiriny, James Richie, George Sand, Walter Serner, Nile Southern, Lono Taggers, Corinne Taunay, Robin Tomens, Paul Willems, and Mark Wyatt. As usual, it’s edited and designed by Norman Conquest.
