Inhaltsangabe
Nothing But a Star is an eclectic mix of poetry, essays, song lyrics and more. Forming an exquisite scrapbook of moods, memories, counter-culture lore, literary extravagance and unschooled imagination, the book offers us a chance to linger in what J.G. Ballard (one of Reed's admirers) called "the visionary present", the imaginary future that exists already around us. With poetry that perfectly captures moments of fascination and inspiration in London, an essay on the suicides of Hart Crane and Harry Crosby, a playscript for a version of The Picture of Dorian Gray set in the 21st century, a pop libretto written for Marc Almond and based on J-K Huysmans' À rebours, Nothing But a Star is an assured marriage of decadence with the futuristic, glittering with the sequins of a pop culture sensibility.

paperback. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only. Artikel-Nr. L-BOM00595-RAG-20240526-G
