First Book of Grabinoulor - Paperback

by Pierre Albert-Birot (Author), Barbara Wright (Translator)

-- Formally inventive and utterly joyous, Grabinoulor recounts the fantastic adventures of its light-hearted, satyric, eponymous hero as he visits other planets, time travels, and finds poetry everywhere he goes.
-- Grabinoulor has been praised highly by authors as diverse as Apollinaire, Celine, and Queneau.
-- Albert-Birot founded and edited one of the first avant-garde book reviews, SIC, which published the futurists, the Dadaists, and the Surrealists. Grabinoulor was first published in its pages.
