Le DĂ©pays - Hardcover Book
By Chris Marker
This is the first English language edition of Chris Markerâs 1982 photo-essay, Le DĂ©pays. Lovingly adapted from the original design, it features Markerâs own translation astride some of his most exquisite, yet rarely seen, black-and-white photography. Realized over the same years as its film companion, Sans Soleil, the book traces similar themesâcats and owls and Japanâbut without ever leaving Golden-Gai for Guinea-Bissau. Musing among department store maneki-neko and dreamers on the metro, wandering between Tokyo and no-place at all, this is nevertheless a unique glimpse of Marker feeling very much himself and quite at home; that is, delightfully disoriented.
