Add to basketA Very Good Plus first printing with minimal shelfwear. Only issued in paperback. 134 pages. 5.25" x 8.75". Jonathan Safran Foer s (1977 ) Tree of Codes (2010) might, on its own, as an object, be regarded as an artistic achievement. But in considering the source material for this die-cut book-written-from-another-book, we are given a thought exercise about what is left of an artist after they pass, how is their work reinterpreted, and what might be intuited about what is omitted? Bruno Schulz (1892 1942) was a Polish Jewish author who was killed in the Drohobycz Ghetto. Most of his works were lost in the Holocaust, but Foer, citing it as his favorite book, used one of the surviving novels, The Street of Crocodiles, as the framework from which Tree of Codes was literally carved. The result is a poetic achievement of book craftsmanship, which we are pleased to offer here. .
