I'm supposed to make list of crazy and obscure books for which I will be paid handsomely. So What is the list?

Apollinaire’s "L’heresiarque et Cie." is vastly underread and one of the greatest and most finely interwoven short story collections ever committed to print.

I read a farsi excerpt of it almost 20 years ago, do you know if there is an English translation?

Now I rememberer that there was an early English translation of it in one those Atlas Press books. But they are out of print now.

Yes, right! If you can get it in the original French, all the better. The closing story—where, among other hijinks, a false Baron who can blend into walls kidnaps people to produce homemade snuff-films he later distributes as fiction—rings truer with each passing year.

This sounds extremely intriguing. Also talking about Atlas press, did you ever read The fall of Jerusalem by Nitsch. I slaved myself to buy this book and when I left my parents just put it in a basement which was flooded!

No! I was never able to wrap my little claws around that one. Just Alan Moore’s "Jerusalem". Alas!

If you manage to find it, it's quite something. Imagine dada, actionism, historical play and Beckett in a supercollider.
