{"product_id":"nicolas-pages-guillaume-dustan-9781635901948","title":"Nicolas Pages","description":"An ode to mad love, awarded the Prix de Flore in 1999.\nPublished in 1999 and awarded that year’s Prix de Flore, Nicolas Pages marks a departure from the Sadean preoccupations of Guillaume Dustan’s first three novels; it is, in essence, a love story. Inspired by a failed romance with the Swiss artist-writer Nicolas Pages and collaging texts that Dustan initially produced for a wide variety of other occasions (magazine articles, short stories, project notes, shopping lists, and more), the “auto-\/bio-\/porno-graphic” prose of Nicolas Pages is by turns trashy and encyclopedic, corporeal and philosophical. Here Dustan inaugurates a “gay literature” that is no longer painful or shameful, but epicurean and cheerful without ever lapsing into idealism. A vibrant plea for gay rights and a tapestried text that is more than the sum of its many styles, Nicolas Pages is a call to explore the body, sexuality, and writing in all their variety; it is a hymn to life, humanity, pleasure, and desire.","brand":"Semiotext (E)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51852373066016,"sku":"9781635901948","price":16.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/2812\/7264\/files\/9781635901948.jpg?v=1781499324","url":"https:\/\/bookcorner.com\/products\/nicolas-pages-guillaume-dustan-9781635901948","provider":"The Book Corner","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
