Written over a short period \"in the spirit\" of RWF, who would often get films made in a matter of weeks or months, \u003ci\u003eThousands of Mirrors\u003c\/i\u003e presents the filmmaker as Penman's equivalent of what Baudelaire was to Benjamin: an urban poet in the turbulent, seeds-sown, messy era just before everything changed. Beautifully written and extraordinarily compelling, echoing the fragmentary works of Roland Barthes and Emil Cioran, Eduardo Galeano and Alexander Kluge, this story has everything: sex, drugs, art, the city, cinema, and revolution.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Semiotext(e)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/02\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781635901887\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.81lbs","brand":"Ian Penman","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42761774727349,"sku":"9781635901887","price":14.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_38ca3602-5947-4f1f-857a-5f48b3e38e4b.jpg?v=1678203309","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/fassbinder-thousands-of-mirrors-9781635901887","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
