Alexandre Singh: the Marque of the Third Stripe

New York-based artist Alexandre Singh's Faustian novella reimagines the life of Adi Dassler, founder of Adidas, in a world of reversed time and geography in which America is the Old World, and Europe a new frontier populated by geometry-worshipping primitives. This limited and signed edition includes Singh's 1080-page "Dictionary of a Synæsthetic Language," nine Wikipedia-style essays, the original story and 18 hand-tipped color photographs.

The Husbands

It’s Aya’s wedding day. Her third. Her current two husbands aren’t too fussed. In a society in which there are few women, that’s just what happens. But as the household prepares for the wedding feast, a stranger arrives – one who threatens to challenge everything they believe in. Against a backdrop of modern rural India, Sharmila Chauhan weaves an extraordinary tale of love and wonder. From the preparation of luxury food and the sacrifice of the lamb to the dressing of the bride and the dance to end all dances, this will be an exuberant, joyful and challenging piece of theatre. ‘In parts of India, polyandry has become a necessity. Gendercide, as a consequence of the ancient prefe...

The Rage of Narcissus

When writer Sergio arrives in Ljubljana to give a lecture on Narcissus, the first thing he does after checking in to his hotel room is get on an app and look for someone to have sex with. A few hours later, once Igor has come and gone, Sergio spots a dark brown stain on the floor. Looking closer, he sees that it's a blood stain. And looking around, he discovers more and more blood stains all over the room. A metafictional narrative about obsession, ego, desire and the writer's psyche, The Rage of Narcissus is a fascinating and disturbing journey into the labyrinth of the self and the darkness within us.
