Description
A graphic designer's past haunts him in Equilibrium. Interned in a concentration camp, he retreats to a rural villa, creating an unsettling environment with "arrows, signs, advertisements" and inventing a new typeface. As he struggles to come to terms with his memories, his life becomes increasingly unbalanced.
Written by Tonino Guerra, a renowned screenwriter for notable directors, Equilibrium is a powerful account of a post-modern man. Reissued to mark the centenary of Guerra's birth, this book features a new introduction by Michael Bracewell.
A deeply unsettling and intensely visual exploration of identity and memory, Equilibrium remains a relevant and thought-provoking read.
