Catastrophone Orchestra: A Collection of Works - Catastrophone Orchestra

ATTA - Jarett Kobek
New in Semiotext(e)'s "Intervention" Series!

The Elephant & Castle: A Novel - Matthew Fuller
The Elephant & Castle is a concrete monster, the last area
of central London to withstand "regeneration." When the world is rebuilt, what could possibly go wrong? Everything! The Elephant & Castle is by turns obscene, criminal, poetic and hilarious.

All the King's Horses - Michele Bernstein
Michèle Bernstein's novel, All the King's Horses (1960), is one of the odder and more elusive, entertaining, and revealing documents of the Situationist International. At the instigation of her first husband, Guy Debord, Bernstein agreed to write a potboiler to help swell the Situationist International's coffers. When she objected to the idea of practicing a "dead art," Debord suggested that it...
