Notched

'To write from the start, for someone, for no one, to write for the stones... to write for a stranger, for a blind man, for a blind stranger...' Notched is translated from Jacques Dupin's mesmerising Échancré (P.O.L, 1991). Jacques Dupin was a double laureate of the Grand Prix national de la poésie and the Grand Prix de poésie de l'académie française. Alex Andriesse is a poet and has translated, notably, Chateaubriand's Memoirs from Beyond the Grave (NYRB Classics).
