Description

Kohon and Toni Griffiths' stunning translation has the power to transport you to the 1960s, to Buenos Aires, to those first overpowering experiences of sexual love. Odetta in Babylon and the Canada Express invites you to step onto the train, and to let go. Lose yourself in the music and enjoy the journey, wherever it takes you.

Translated by Gregorio Kohon with Toni Griffiths Introduction by Gwen MacKeith

About the Author
Gregorio Kohon was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He has published four books of poetry in Spanish: Puntos de Partida (1963), Ebrio Sale el Sol (1967), Odetta en Babilonia y el Rapido a Canada (1968) and El Estilo del Deseo (2008). His novel Papagayo Rojo, Pata de Palo (2003) was a finalist in manuscript form for the 2001 Fernando Lara Prize, and was published in English as Red Parrot, Wooden Leg in 2007. He moved to England in 1970, where he studied and worked with R. D. Laing and his colleagues in the anti- psychiatry movement, qualifying as a psychoanalyst of the British Psycho-Analytical Society in 1979. From early 1988 to December 1994, he lived in Australia, where he co-founded and directed The Brisbane Centre for Psychoanalytic Studies. He has edited and published a number of books on psychoanalysis, many of which have been translated into French, Italian, Polish, Swedish, Portuguese, German, Spanish and Japanese.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
