A cult classic in France, the first translation of a novel that
captures a subjective stroll through an underground, glamorous
Paris finally there are the rolling stones who call for all these
at the same time among them and around them: the policeman, the
cross-dresser, the dancer, Frankenstein, the dandy, the robot -from
Dusty Pink Written with the hope of achieving a "dreary distant
banality," Jean-Jacques Schuhl's first novel is a subjective stroll
through an underground, glamorous Paris, a city that slips into the
background but never disappears, hovering on the verge of its own
suppression. An elegiac and luminous cut-up, Dusty Pink brings
together race wire results, editions of France-Soir, the lyrics to
well-known British songs, scripts from famous old films,
pharmaceutical leaflets, fashion ads, and strips and scraps of
culture in which the avant-garde and academicism blur in an
overview of the cultural scene. This world of atmospheres,
portraits, and dazzling associations of ideas creates a plane of
shimmering surfaces. Published in French in 1972, Jean-Jacques
Schuhl's Dusty Pink became a cult classic. This is its first
translation.
