Films without Images: Three Radio Plays

The great Swiss poet and fiction writer, Blaise Cendrars, was also highly involved in filmmaking, and wrote screenplays for several early French films. These three "films without images"-Gilles de Rais, Sarajevo and The Divine Aretino-were designated as radio plays, but reveal the cinematic nature of Cendrars' brilliant and intelligent writing. This book will help to reveal more of the great modernist, author of Sutter's Gold, Dan Yack, and Panama, or The Adventures of My Seven Uncles.
