WHITE SKULL: 1666. The 16-year-old man-boy known only by the nom-de-guerre Misson sails to Madagascar in the wake of the English pirate William Kid. After months at sea he reaches the Butcher’s Triangle and there encounters Captain Tew and his voodoo kingdom. Misson attempts to establish a republic on the island but his cohorts are overtaken by a holocaust of evil and the young voyager marries his own vanishing-point beyond the horizon of both sea and human experience. Misson was the precursor of Rimbaud and Lautreamont, the third part of a doomed teenage triumvirate destined to stain future consciousness by their actions and words. WHITE^SKULL is his story, a story depicting the terrible violence of the imagination and the assassination of liberty by a savage universe. This edition contains several miscellaneous texts originally published in anthologies and magazines.
