Synopsis
The founding text of pataphysics ("the science of imaginary solutions"), and one of the most quietly influential novels of the 20th century
Alfred Jarry is best known as the author of the proto-Dada play Ubu Roi, but this anarchic novel of absurdist philosophy is widely regarded as the central work to his oeuvre. Exploits and Opinions of Dr. Faustroll recounts the adventures of the inventor of “Pataphysics ... the science of imaginary solutions.”

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. The singular novel by the legendary author of the play, UBU ROI, is a book that can only be compared to Rabelais or Sterne. FAUSTROLL recounts the adventures of the inventor of PATAPHYSIC, the 'science of imaginary solutions.' Jarry would have found an audience more readily if he had simply written a work of science fiction, a symbolist narrative, a bawdy tale or a spriritual allegory. As it is, FAUSTROLL is all of these at the same time.' - Roger Shattuk'. Seller Inventory # LU-9781878972071
