Bucharest: Passport Levant, 2011. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Near fine. This edition is limited to one hundred numbered copies of which this number is: 30". A superlative homage to Mikhail Bulgakov in which the weird story meets detective fiction, the surrealism of past European masters, and the allegory of dissident writers to create a geopolitical occult work to end all politics. Frontispiece artwork by Armand Henrion. Oblong octavo. Original burgundy cloth binding, with gilt stamping, red endpapers, and a ribbon marker. A fine copy in a near fine dust jacket with two minor scratches to the front panel. (Inventory #: 76035)
