Stunning ‘objet de poésie’ with fantastic experimental music from Magne with a reading of Rimbaud by André that echos like a prophetic message from beyond. Magne delights with prepared pianos, distorted percussions, twisted strings and deep organ. The box is a super deluxe object of ‘littérature vivante’ with deep red printed inner sleeves, and a olive green folder containing 20 separate pages of the original text with illustrations by Verlaine. Foreword by Jean Cocteau called ‘bouche d’ombre’ from 1961. Box Corners have light edge damage otherwise clean. Booklet is perfect. Disc are shiny and clean, tho they play with occasional soft noise. A very rare item.
