(Bolinas), Tombouctou, (1986). The limited, hardcover issue of this "translation" by Bowles of two stories by Mrabet, his longtime friend and collaborator. Bowles would tape Mrabet telling his stories, and then transcribe and translate them, resulting in a body of Arabic literature that exists in written form only in English or in the other languages into which Bowles's translations were themselves translated, but not in their original language. One of 100 numbered copies signed by Bowles and Mrabet, the entire hardcover edition. Fine without dust jacket, as issued. [#016140] SOLD
