Alice's Adventures Under Ground
Who would have been able to predict
that a tale invented in a little boat on
the Thames, on a warm summer’s day
in the nineteenth century, would
become such a worldwide success ?
The New York Trilogy MANUSCRIPT
Written separately, the three
manuscripts forming The New York
Trilogy reveal manyreferences to
cinema, American and European
literature used by Auster, that do
not appear in the final versions
the public knows.
City of Glass was for instance originally
entitled New York City Confidential,
in reference to Russel Rouse’s movie.
Les Éditions des Saints Pères specialises in the publication of facsimile editions of important manuscripts. Founded in 2012, Les Saints Pères’ conception is intimately linked with a love of literature as well as an appreciation of unique and beautiful objects. In the context of our increasingly digitized world, our goal is to restore the magic of the manuscript as a pure and untouched vehicle between the artist and their work.
