Satie's writings are accurately translated, and presented in meticulous accord with all the details from Satie's manuscripts (for example, the lack of capital letters on the introductory notes to Uspud).

Arrived quickly in excellent condition. Have browsed through it and what I have read is really interesting. Will dive in soon.

I was hoping to find more biographical facts, rather, you get this collection of Erik's writings, which gives you an idea of his utterly out of the ordinary personality. It needs to be mentioned that the translation into english will never capture the real esence of his writings. If you don't like to get out of your comfort zone with books, don't buy this one.

It's important for 100-year-old hipster stuff to be confusing and Old. Well you got everything in one happy package here with Old Erik none of this makes any sense but nonetheless we need it to be. Kinda like just letting it wash over me and figuring if this guy was headed somewhere and maybe we got there and maybe we did not, I think he was pulling our leg.
