"Beautiful mutants first published by Jonathan Cape 1989; Swallowing geography first published by Jonathan Cape 1993"--Title page verso.
摘要
:
Back in print at last, two pioneering early works from Deborah Levy which have inspired a cult following, launching the career of this essential writer: Beautiful Mutants Lapinski, a manipulative and magical Russian exile, summons forth a number of highly contemporary urban pilgrims. Through them, Levy explores broken dreams and self-destructive desires in a shimmering, dislocated allegory of its times. Swallowing Geography Like her namesake Jack Kerouac, J.K. is always on the road, travelling Europe with her typewriter in a pillowcase. From J.K.'s irreverent, ironic perspective, Levy charts a new, dizzying, end-of-the-century world of shifting boundaries and displaced peoples. Early Levy shows a writer utterly unafraid to take risks, in both imagination and subject matter, and to chart the world as she sees it.
