Walls (Anamneses)

Author: Marcel Cohen

Translator: Brian Evenson & Joanna Howard

Publisher: Black Square Editions & Brooklyn Rail (2009)

A compendium of aphoristic passages, a flipbook of presences and absences, an exquisitely minimalist travelogue-cum-commonplace book, a remembrance of things past by way of the fragment: it is difficult to categorize this text, which was originally published in 1979, but it is quite easy to appreciate its grave acumen and elegance.
