Description
Alfred Jarry (1873-1907) was the original transgressive author; the first word of his famous play Ubu Roi -"Shittr!" - changed the course of art and drama forever. Jarry's novels are equally outrageous, and the best of them are now again available in English. Where Exploits and Opinions of Dr. Faustroll, Pataphysician is philosophical, The Supermale is carnal.
