THEORY 140 STATEMENTS

by [Hollings, Ken]: "Capalula" [pseud]

  • Used
Amsterdam: Kontext Publications, 1979. [30]pp. Sq. octavo. Printed wrappers. White wrappers a bit dust smudged, otherwise very good or better. First edition. One of 500 copies printed. A quite early work by the musician and performance artist, later novelist and social historian/critic, Ken Hollings, a manifesto in the form of a list of seemingly random but related thoughts about art, experience and language. OCLC locates ten copies, without making the authorship linkage. Beneath the photo of the very young London-based musician and performance artist is the note that he has just completed his first novel. OCLC: 9079820.

New York, Grove Press, 2022, trade paperback, 272 pp, Advance Uncorrected Proof (ARC), New. Straight, tight and clean with no wear or markings in bright, pictorial card covers, no dustjacket as issued. The pieces in this collection, written between 1956 and 1961 and including short fiction, a radio play, and a stunning early novel, offer startling insights into Cohens imagination and creative process. Cohen explores themes that would permeate his later work, from shame and unworthiness to sexual desire in all its sacred and profane dimensions to longing, whether for love, family, freedom, or transcendence.
