The most beautiful scandal

ISOU, Isidore. Initiation à la Haute Volupté. Paris: Escaliers de Lausanne. 1960.

8vo. Cream card wrappers with blue lettering to title page and spine; pp. 496, untrimmed and partially unopened; light spotting to fore-edges, light rubbing to spine ends, but generally very good.

First edition.

Romanian-born poet and novelist Isidore Isou was the founder of Lettrism, the French avant-garde movement that emerged in post-war Paris out of the legacy of Surrealism. His Introduction à une nouvelle poésie et à une nouvelle musique (1946) set out the first Lettrist manifesto, calling for the abolition of words in favour of letters and redefining artistic creation around “the sign”. Initiation à la Haute Volupté, first published in 1960, later inspired a celebrated series of silkscreens produced by Edizioni Conz in 1989. Isou’s provocations extended beyond literature: the uproar in Cannes over his 1951 film Traité de bave et d’éternité (Treatise on Slime and Eternity) famously prompted Jean Cocteau to call it “the most beautiful scandal”.

Runs much bigger than expected
Size: 8.5, Color: White
Nice design and looks good, but sizing is completely off. Ordered 8.5 (usual size) and it fits much larger, closer to a 9.5. Already did two exchanges and both had the same issue. Not reliable sizing.

Makes a lot of noise when walking
Size: 10, Color: Black
I wore this for the first time, and it kept making swushing noises. It was extremely embarrassing to walk around on them. However they are comfortable.
