| Description: |
The Secret Library of Georges Armoulian defies description. It is the catalogue of the library of a successful New York born Armenian carpet dealer, and is composed with strict bibliographic principles in mind. |
| Synopsis: |
Here is the forbidden and the outlawed. Here are suppressed editions and pulped printruns, scandalous memoirs and libellous outrages, covert curiosa and secret sexology, high and low sleaze (there's a difference), outrageous revisionist history and true life pornography, embarrassing association copies, scummy ephemera, and bibliographic mongrels and refugees and orphans that were solely in want of a home until Armoulian took them in. Hailed by Frederick Raphael, writing about this extraordinary then unpublished work in Prospect magazine, as one of the funniest satires that he had ever read, The Secret Library of Georges Armoulian defies description. |
