Description

Philosopher-playwright Alain Jugnon's a body, in spite introduces this prolific French author to an English-speaking readership.

The aphorisms that comprise this slight philosophy for actors are an inventoried body with and without its defenses.

With incisive humor, Jugnon casts his intellect into the many-organed world, to draw from its semantic recesses a sort of divine putrescence.

This work, written for the stage, and received as a presage, reads like an autobiography of Nietzsche's last laugh.

This bilingual edition features an afterword by the translator.
