Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This volume includes twenty-five interdisciplinary essays on Paul Bowles's literary and musical work. The legendary author - a North-American expatriate writer and composer, and a cult figure who, according to Norman Mailer '. let in the murder, the drugs, the incest, the death of the square, the end of civilization' - and his artistic output, are explored here by leading contemporary scholars. They seek alternative and multiple perspectives of his work through the dynamics of music and literature, avant-garde film and the No wave scene, torture studies and security, Islamic studies, modernism and surrealism.
