 Books from Avenue B: "Among the Blacks", by Raymond Roussel & Ron Padgett   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
Among the Blacks consists of two works: Padgett's translation of Roussel's early story "Parmi les noirs," first published in 1935 in his book Comment j'ai écrit certain de mes livres, together with Padgett's memoir focusing upon his own experience among fl people.
Roussel's story, about a master mariner named White who encounters an African chief named Booltable, is built upon the kind of whimsical and extravagant word play (its first and last sentences are identical except for one letter in one word--"pooltable"/ "Booltable") for which Roussel was idolized by the French Surrealists.
"Ron Padgett is a complex figure: brash and bashful, streetwise and wonderful, boyish and cultivated, zany and commonsensical, American and cosmopolitan, wily and naïve, understated and extravagant, artful and fresh, sympathetic and reserved, wry and plainspoken."
