Award-winning poet and novelist Jeremy Reed postulates the secret life of Isidore Ducasse, also known as Le Comte de Lautreamont, author of Les Chants de Maldoror, the blasphemous text which detonated 19th century literature and later formed one of the cornerstones of Andre Breton's Surrealist manifestos. Reed's dazzling prose leads us through the labyrinthine inner landscapes of one who becomes his own murderous double, illuminating a short but violent life consecrated to insurrection.
Isidore is a truly exceptional and powerful work, an electric testament to the imagination and the importance of 'hallucinated' literature above all other. In the absence of a true biography of Ducasse, it provides an unprecedented insight into the enigma surrounding this legendary figure and the creation of his notorious literary masterpiece.
