'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.

"Derek McCormack is the author of fashion-inflected novels that cast luminaries such as Elsa Schiaparelli and Balenciaga as characters. This collection brings together for the first time McCormack's fashion journalism. He writes about and interviews fashion figures that fascinate him, tracing the ways they inspire and inhabit his novels. The result is a sort of memoir in essays: as he writes, "My tribute to [Judy] Blame is about him and about me--there are lots of my own tales woven in with the topics I touch on. The writing here is a sort of autobiography, a life seen through a scrim, or a life as a scrim--my moire mémoire." Judy Blame's Obituary contains twenty years' worth of reminiscenc...

Aria scotese con variazzione

This set of ten variations for violoncello and harpsichord on a traditional Scottish tune is attributed to “J. P. Bach” in its unique source. Among the Bach family musicians, only one had those initials, namely Johann Philipp Bach (1752–1846). The last surviving member of this musical dynasty, J. P. Bach reached the age of ninety-four and outlived many famous composers of the Romantic era. Like his father and grandfather, J. P. Bach served at the court in Meiningen, Germany. He is best known as a visual artist, especially for his pastels. Although he held the post of organist as well as painter for the dukes in Meiningen, until now J. P. Bach’s music has been completely unknown. Since this work is apparently the only known composition by the last professional musician in the long line of Bach family members, it is of considerable historical importance.
