A wide ranging compendium of short stories, poems, and miscellaneous writings of Boris Vian. Edited and translated by Julia Older whose last book of Vian's prose (Blues for a Black Cat and Other Stories) was praised widely for capturing Vian's "gallows humor to verbal fireworks." This book continues Older's exploration of the world of Boris Vian and making many untranslated writings more widely available.

Boris Vian (1920¿59), a trained engineer and jazz trumpet player, was a major literary figure in World War II France. Julia Older is the author or editor of many works. Her stories, translations, and poems have appeared in New Directions, the New Yorker, and many other journals.
