Whether he is describing his encounters with Gribski (whose strange hidden library in Bucharest he is to see but once) or itemizing the various books whose existence he has dreamed (including \"a collection of children's paeans to Ceausescu bound in the same volume as a slim commentary on Pound's Canto XIV\") Blyth shows himself to be a card catalogue unto himself. In the tradition of Jorge Luis Borges, Italo Calvino, and Alberto Manguel, this book is bound to please.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Dalkey Archive Press","offers":[{"title":"Card Catalogue | Alistair Ian Blyth | Paperback | 9781628972696 | New | Fiction 1208590","offer_id":50550513991938,"sku":"1208590","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/61StpW583XL.jpg?v=1790467560","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/card-catalogue","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
