You Don't Find Maldoror—It Finds You

Many of you have never read The Songs of Maldoror (1868) and it shows. When the French surrealist prose poem was first presented to me by a friend as "the most evil book ever written," it wasn't so much the content that affirmed the claim, but the atmosphere that permeated as I read it . . .

"It is not right that everyone should read the pages which follow; only a few will be able to savour this bitter fruit with impunity. Consequently, shrinking soul, turn on your heels and go back before penetrating further into such uncharted, perilous wastelands."

—  Maldoror, Part I, Chapter 1 #Lautreamont #Maldoror #books #bookstadon

“When one wants to be famous, one has to dive gracefully into rivers of the blood of cannon-blasted bodies.”

Comte de Lautréamont.

#Lautreamont ‘s #Maldoror gives up so many evil treasures. There really is no other book like it. Every time you dip back into those beautiful dark waters some new image takes you by the throat. #books #surrealism #bookstadon

We find it hard to recommend our own music to people we like. As the Comte de #Lautreamont once said: “Not everyone can savour this bitter fruit with impunity.” #maldoror #surrealism #psychedelicmusic
