Scraps: The Rules of the Game, Volume 2 (Volume 2) (The Margellos World Republic of Letters)

"I read with fervor the literary works of Michel Leiris and in particular the four volumes of Rules of the Game... He is incontestably one of the greatest writers of the century."-Claude Levi-Strauss "In Leiris's Rules of the Game Volume 2, I found again those qualities that had riveted me in Volume 1: those spirals of words coiling in on themselves and unrolling again into infinity, drilling into the abysses of the past and the heart, yet glittering there in broad daylight, reflecting from image to image toward a secret that vanishes at the very instant it seems it must appear, the search having no other outcome than itself in the slow revolution of its thousand mirrors."-Simon de Beauvoir
