An epic follow-up to Stevenson's classic novel
Behind each children's book, behind each bestseller, a sacred text is hidden. Stevenson's novel has been scrutinized, read and re-read a thousand times. It has been used as a model for a map that leads us in search of an island where a cave that represented the sky was located. And in that sky, the stars and planets were represented by diamonds, real diamonds... Both a prelude and a continuation to Raoul Ruiz's film, Treasure Island, made in 1984, In Pursuit of Treasure Island presents itself as the follow-up, or rather a pursuit, of Stevenson's novel. It is a formidable example of the way Ruiz parodies the text and plunges the story inside the story before losing the reader in a labyrinth of strange images."synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In search of new narrative modes in artists' practices, the "Fictions" collection is a space dedicated to the writings of film directors. The point is to show how those writings, playing on the ruptures and mutations of the story by turning upside down our codes of representation, epitomize the contemporary imaginary expressed in them. Both a prelude and a continuation to Raoul Ruizs film, Treasure Island, made in 1984, this text presents itself as the follow up, or rather, a pursuit of Stevensons novel.
