Softcover. Condición: Neu. Rodney Graham. The System of Landor's Cottage. A Pendant to Poe's Last Story. Brussels 2012. 2nd edition. 190:127mm. 328S. mit 2 Abb. Brosch. Second edition of the same title first published in 1987. With a preface by Rodney Graham and in appendix essays by Jamie Hilder and Robert Linsley. ""Rodney Graham's "The System of Landor's Cottage." is part pataphysical investigation, part Roussellian exercise. The text begins with Edgar Allan Poe's short story "Landor's Cottage: A Pendant to 'The Domain of Arnheim,'" which describes a waylaid traveller's encounter with an uncannily pristine landscape and cabin in the Hudson River Valley. Into this short ta-le, which numbers less than twenty pages in most editions, Graham inserts an entire novel centered around an annex to Poe's original structure that houses a fantastical machine. Through a complex set of nested tales, the origins of the machine become clearer but no less magical, and readers will be held rapt by accounts of architectural wonders, a mysterious cipher, and the romance of impossible scien-ce."
