INTERZONE REPORT

August-September 2008

Paul O'Donovan "A Good Read"

Hi all,

I have not sent any report in August because  there were not enough news due to the holidays. So most of the news here concern September.

I have had the visit of Vasha and Egle on the way to Portugal : great to see them ! And I have a job, which leaves me less time for the Zone's work. Though, here is the account of the recent news :

Writings and publishing

Interzone Editions

The introduction has been completed at http://www.inter-zone.org/presentation.htm , a paragraph on the structure of economy of this publishing enterprise has been added.

The Time of the Naguals - Le Temps des Naguals

I am prepairing for Interzone Editions  the definitive version of Le Temps des Naguals : Autour de Burroughs et Gysin. The book was started as a compilation at the beginning of Interzone in August 1997. I had written a French version during the previous years, containing Burroughs' interviews, articles, and a French translation of "The Last Words of Hassan Sabbah", which I had submitted to Burroughs who gave me his agreement and encouraged me to go on.

As the book was not very big in 1997, I proposed to the Zoners to add their own texts on Burroughs and Gysin and make a compilation of the whole.

As a result, the French book has been completed since, and there are a number of articles from Zoners, in English, and other languages for the different translations of the Last Words.

So here I need the point of view of the people who got involved in this project, as before the texts were just put on  line, and now I am going to publish it officially.

There are different possibilities here :

1. Make a French book, Le Temps des Naguals, which will contain the French texts, an an English one : The Time  of the Naguals, which will contain the English ones

2. Make a French -English one which will gather the whole, with the original texts in English by Burroughs and Gysin with their French translations.

Both will contain illustrations : original pictures of Burroughs and Gysin, and some by Paul O'Donovan and other zoners' ones.

I am going to make a summary of both with the number of pages, and see the result then.

Concerning the money which I shall get from the sales, as those books are a common work, I propose to use the money for common purpose in the zone, which we shall decide later on, and use this opportunity to go on experimenting the non-Aristotelian economy we have started to formulate since 2000.
