In early 2015, Tim was reading a book of critical analyses of the films of the Dardenne brothers, and it referred to two volumes of Luc Dardenne’s journals. He immediately searched online to buy them and was disappointed to learn that they were never translated into English.
Now, four years and three translators later, with help from the French Cultural Ministry’s prestigious CNL grant, Luc Dardenne’s On the Back of Our Images, Vol. 1 is now available for pre-order!
To celebrate the release of Weeping Gang Bliss Void Yab-Yum, Devendra Banhart will be visiting us here in Chicago!
If you are looking to chat with us in shouted mono-syllables while loud music plays nearby, you can find us again this year at The Book Fort at Pitchfork Music Festival. Our titles will be sold at greatly reduced festival prices!
Make sure to stop by our table at the Chicago Book Expo this Sunday, October 1. We'll have deals on most of our titles (+ freebies!) from noon to 5 pm. Info on flier below.
